Energy is required by most complex metabolic pathways (often in the form of adenosine triphosphate, ATP), especially those responsible for building large molecules from smaller compounds, and life itself is an energy-driven process. Living organisms would not be able to assemble macromolecules (proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, and complex carbohydrates) from their monomeric subunits without a constant energy input.

This accumulation leads to harmful effects, such as weakened eggshells in birds and health risks to humans, especially vulnerable groups like pregnant women and children. Understanding biomagnification is essential for assessing environmental impacts on wildlife and food safety.
