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.
1) is called 3-methyl hexane because we choose the longest possible continuous chain which has 6 carbons and start numbering from the side that gives the branch lowest possible number.
2) is called 2-methyl-2-butene because we have to give the double bond lowest possible number but in this case double bond in position 2 from both sides so we start from the side gives the branch number 2 not 3
3) is called 7-Ethyl-4-decyne because we have to start from the side that gives the triple bond lowest possible number which is 4 and the branch will be at position 7 (note that the name of 10 carbon is incorrectly written in the choices is called decane (as alkane) or decyne when contains triple bond)
4) is called 2,3-Dimethyl pentane because it is 5 carbons (pentane) and we have two branches of the same alkyl (dimethyl) in positions 2 and 3
5) is called 1-Butanol because it contains 4 carbons and has one OH as functional group which take the suffix -ol in position 1 so we said the name as 1-butanol (remember to give the functional group lowest possible number)
6) is called propyl butyl ether because the longest chain is 4 carbons which called butyl and the smallest chain is propyl, it also has another name 1-Propoxy butane <span />
