What is bioaccumulation?

Bioaccumulation occurs in a single species over the duration of its life, causing a greater concentration in older people.

Bioaccumulation is the procedure by which chemicals accumulate in a life form when the percentage of consumption exceeds the frequency of excretion.

Chemicals enter the body through exposure to the abiotic environment or through dietary intake.

When toxins are soaked up faster than the body can eliminate them, the organism is at danger of permanent poisoning.

Even if the environment does not contain a high concentration of toxin, accumulation through the food chain can be disastrous for organisms.

Thus, the correct option is C.
