Answer: Biological Magnification
Explanation:
Organisms acquire toxic substance from the environment along with nutrients and water. Some of the toxins are metabolized and excreted, but others accumulate in specific tissues, especially fat. One of the reasons accumulated toxins are particularly harmful is that the become more concentrated in successive trophic level of the food web, this is the process of biological magnification.
Magnification occurs because the biomass at any given level is produced from a must larger biomass ingested from the level below. Thus the top-level carnivores tend to be the organism most severely affected by toxic compounds in the environment.
Examples of toxins that demonstrate biology magnification are chlorinated hydrocarbons, and many pesticides.
Aromatic side chain exhibits an electronic excited state that is closer in energy to the ground state.
- In order to respond to this query, we must decide whether a peptide bond or an aromatic side chain is demonstrating an electronic exited state that is more closely related to the ground state in terms of energy.
- When our energy is as low as possible, we are in the ground state.
- What I want to point out is that if we can choose between the two options—peptide bond or aromatic side chain—without knowing the specific reasons, we can immediately rule out two potential answers.
- Consider what we already know about energy, we have:
E = h x c/λ
- That indicates that when we have more energy, a wavelength decreases. Lower energy corresponds to higher wavelength.
- Aromatic side chains absorb between 250 and 290 nm, while peptide bonds do so between 190 and 250 nm.
- According to our breakdown, we have an electron excited state that is more closely related to the ground state in terms of energy as wavelength increases.
Thus, Aromatic side chain exhibits an electronic excited state that is closer in energy to the ground state.

At STP one mole of gas takes up 22.4L which means that the answer is B since there is 6.02×10²³ molecules in one mole of a substance.
I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.
