Based on your knowledge of Bioaccumulation, which organism would you expect to contain the highest amount of PCBs?

Respuesta :

In accordance with data regarding PCB levels and the continued contamination of our oceans and rivers, we can confirm that the organisms with the highest levels of PCBs are fish.

PCBs are highly toxic chemical compounds. These chemicals are most often produced and released into the environment through human activities as waste products. They can cause neurological malformations, developmental issues, and serious long-term health problems, making PCBs dangerous to fetuses, babies, and even adults.

Bioaccumulation is an organism's tendency to absorb toxic chemicals from the environment into itself. These toxic compounds then enter the food chain through biomagnification. The bioaccumulation of PCBs are most common among fish due to the very high levels of PCB contamination in our oceans and rivers.
