Answer: D. Biological magnification

Explanation:

A food chain is a linear sequence of transfer of food and energy when one organism is consumed by another organism. The transmission of food and energy takes place from the lower trophic level to higher trophic levels when organisms of the lower trophic level are consumed by the organisms of higher trophic levels.

Biological magnification is a phenomena in which a toxic material or pollutant enters into the food chain. The material remains undigested in the body of the organisms and causes detrimental effects. The organisms at the highest trophic levels decline in number due to the increase in concentration of the toxic at the higher level as they consume organisms of the lower trophic levels.

According to the given situation, biological magnification is the correct option because here the amounts of pollution at the higher trophic levels is the greatest as compared to the lower trophic levels.

Evidence that visual input is routed from the thalamus directly to an emotional control center in the brain has been used to sup
Marina86 [1]
This evidence supports the claim that some emotional reactions may occur without conscious thinking.
Thalamus is a small brain area located above the brain stem, with the main function of sending motor and sensory signals from the spinal cord and the mid-brain structures to the cerebral cortex.

Amygdala is a small brain region, which is part of the limbic system. It is considered the emotional control centre of the brain since it regulates emotions, survival instincts and some memory functions.

It has been proven that visual input is directly sent by the thalamus to the amygdala, which can trigger some emotional responses (such as fear) without any conscious processing.
