Question

select the statement(s) that accurately describe biomagnification.
if a tertiary consumer was introduced in this food chain example, the toxin level would be greater than that of the secondary consumer.
producers do not take in toxins in this food chain example.
if a tertiary consumer was introduced in this food chain example, the toxin level would be less than that of the secondary consumer.
the secondary consumer has the highest concentration of toxins in this food chain example.
the secondary consumer has less of the toxin level compared to the producer in this food cr example.
the primary consumer has the highest concentration of toxins in this food chain example.
the primary consumer has double the toxin level compared to the producer in this food chain example.

Explanation:

Biomagnification is the process where toxins accumulate and increase in concentration as they move up the food chain. Producers do take in toxins. As we move up the food chain (from producers to primary consumers to secondary consumers to tertiary consumers), the toxin level increases. So, a tertiary consumer would have a higher toxin level than a secondary consumer.

Answer:

If a tertiary consumer was introduced in this food chain example, the toxin level would be greater than that of the secondary consumer.
