“Biomagnification or biological magnification is the process of accumulation of certain chemicals in living organisms to a concentration higher than that occurring in the inorganic, non-living environment.”

Human beings occupies the top place of most trophic level and we know that concentration of harmful chemicals increase as we go above the trophic level. Therefore human beings are most adversely affected by biological magnification.

Humans may also be affected due to the consumption of fish and shellfish.

I need help and please explain
Ierofanga [76]

Breaking chemical bonds is typically an endothermic process, which means energy must be added (it must pull in energy)

Breaking of chemical bonds is always endothermic meaning it wants energy, so it takes energy from its surroundings and sucks it in. Think of 'endo' as inside. The chemical bonds want energy inside of it so it can break.

Forming of chemical bonds is exothermic, meaning it releases energy into its surroundings. Think of 'exo' as outside, or exterior, it releases its energy outside of itself.

I hope that makes some kind of sense :)
