Question

although there are fewer bald eagles in an ecosystem than rabbits, the eagles will have a higher concentration of the toxic chemical ddt in their bodies than the rabbits. this phenomenon is an example of: biotic factors in an ecosystem predator - prey relationships biomagnification across trophic levels the water cycle in an ecosystem

Explanation:

Biomagnification occurs when a toxic substance's concentration increases as it moves up the food - chain through different trophic levels. Bald eagles, being higher in the food - chain than rabbits, accumulate more DDT. Biotic factors refer to living organisms in general, predator - prey relationships focus on consumption, and the water cycle is about water movement, none of which directly explain the DDT concentration difference.

Answer:

Biomagnification across trophic levels
