The process of some chemicals building up in living things to a concentration that is higher than what occurs in the inorganic, non-living world is known as "biomagnification" or "biological magnification."

<h3>What is meant by biomagnification ?</h3>

Biomagnification is the accumulation of a chemical by an organism as a result of exposure to both food and water, resulting in a concentration that is higher than what would have been expected from equilibrium and higher than what would have occurred with only water exposure.

The accumulation of a certain material in the bodies of creatures at various trophic levels of a food chain is known as biomagnification. The buildup of the chemical DDT in zooplanktons is one instance of biomagnification in action. These zooplanktons are consumed by little fish.
