    It’s the concentration of pollutant like chloromethyl mercury in the ecological food chain. Any substance more soluble in tissue than the surrounding media has the tendency to concentrate in the food chain of more complex biological species that live on simpler biological species. So, in a nutshell, bio-amplification occurs when concentrations of toxins are passed on from smaller prey to larger predators.
