Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Biological magnification is the process where chemical pollutants become increasingly concentrated as they move up through food chains, resulting in higher levels of contamination in top predators.

Answer: H
 Species likely to become endangered in the near future are those that are threatened by habitat loss, pollution, climate change, and other factors that could lead to their decline.

Answer: I, K
 Both options I and K refer to the process of bioaccumulation or the buildup of pollutants in the tissues of organisms over time.
