Answer:
The simple answer is bioaccumulation resulting from biomagnification. Carnivores consume organisms at higher trophic levels, and thus "poisons," such as heavy metals accumulate in these organisms at levels greater than those found in plants. Moreover, such chemicals typically accumulate in the fatty tissues of carnivores, such as the nervous, lymphatic, endocrine, and reproductive systems.
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
From the analysis we have in the question, we must look towards a first row transition metal ion having a d^6 configuration because it yields a paramagnetic complex having four unpaired electrons and a diamagnetic complex having no unpaired electrons.
We have two possible candidates in mind, Fe^2+ and Co^3+. However, Fe^2+ does not form as many coloured complexes as stated in the question so we have to eliminate that option.
We are now left with only Co^3+. Various ligands are going to cause these various colours of Co^3+ to appear in solution.
Hence, we can deduce from all these that the nature of ligands determines the colour of the complex . Don't forget that the colour of a complex arises from crystal field splitting.

Ni solution could be used to remove lead from lead (II) nitrate.
Explanation:
The removal of lead from lead nitrate will take place by displacement reaction.
In displacement reaction less reactive element is displaced by more reactive element form it compound.
The reactivity is decided by the placement of metal in the activity series.
A metal which is at higher position in the activity series will be able to displace the metal or element having lower position.
From the options given we will check their position in the activity series in comparison to Pb
Cu is lower in series than Pb hence cannot displace.
Hg is placed lower in the series than Pb hence cannot displace Pb.
Ag is placed lower than Pb in the series hence cannot displace Pb.
Ni is placed above the Pb in activity series hence can displace lead.
