1 answer:

6 0

Biological magnification is when the concentration of something (like a chemical or something hazardous) is more concentrated within the levels of the food chain. For example, you have a fly that was consumed by a frog. The fly had a toxin within their body and now the frog has it. It continues to become more concentrated in the frog. The frog is consumed by a bird. The birth now has a more concentrated level of toxin. The bird is then consumed by a human. There is now more concentration within the human.

Bio concentration is related to the water. It's when the concentration within the water is filled with a toxin and the life within the water has a higher concentration within their body.

How are long term and short term environmental changes similar? and how are they different?

netineya [11]

Answer:

Explanation:

Environmental changes occurs from time to time, we have the short term changes that do not last for a very long time and the long term changes that last for a while. Accumulate of short term changes can extend to long term as some of the long term effects are as a results of short term changes in the environment.

Short term environment changes can be favourable to some organism and adversely affect others. Raining season causes increase in growth and development of most plant species but a long period of drought and dryness makes its hard for some plant to strive while some plants can strive well in long period of drought. This makes the two changes different, the both have individual effects on plants response.
