Robin can have a ddt concentration of 444ppm while the ddt concentration of soil is 10 ppm. This happens due to biological magnification.
<u>Explanation:</u>
In biological magnification the concentration of toxic substances at successive trophic levels keeps increasing. Due to biomagnification, what starts out as a small concentration grows while moving to successive trophic levels. DDT is a pesticide which is used to kill pests that affect crops.
DDT used in farms gets deposited in the soil. From the soil it can reach various trophic levels. At each trophic level its concentration keeps increasing.
Robin is a bird that is a secondary consumer and thus belongs to the higher trophic level. Thus even if the DDT concentration is as low as 10ppm in the soil its concentration will keep increasing and can become a high value like 444ppm.

biological catalyst that speed up the rate of chemical reaction in the body is
known as Enzymes. Many processes in the body depend majorly on enzymes and they usually function by forming enzyme- substrate complex. However, large
temperature and pH will cause the enzymes to denature this is because all
enzymes are proteins and these extreme conditions will affect the bonds in
their tertiary structure.
The answer is burning coal! Please forgive me if I get this answer wrong!
The answer is A
This is because 90% of energy is lost when we go up one trophic level. This means that even the the consumers tend to be larger in size, they are fewer in number and need to eat more in order to sustain themselves.
Answer:
3.
Explanation:
As a hypothesis is used as an experiment in order to define the relationship between two variables, and to find the answer(s) to a question while a formalized one forces us to brainstorm about the results in which we should search for in an experiment.
