    biomagnification

    Explanation:

    Biomagnification is a negative event originating from a significant amount of waste or toxic substances accumulated at a trophic level of the food chain, capable of reaching other trophic levels of the chain, damaging the balance of the organisms involved, as they will absorb these substances in the future.

    The excess of these substances poses a direct threat to the plant and animal organisms present in the environment. The indirect form occurs through ingestion of contaminated food. In the second situation the man is also harmed.
