Population

A population is a summation of all the organisms of the same group or species, which live in a particular geographical area, and have the capability of interbreeding.

Random Distribution
In probability and statistics, a probabilitydistribution assigns a probability to each measurable subset of the possible outcomes of a random experiment, survey, or procedure of statistical inference.

Clumped Distribution

Clumped distribution is the most common type of dispersion found in nature. In clumped distribution, the distance between neighboring individuals is minimized.

Uniform Distribution

A uniform distribution, sometimes also known as a rectangular distribution, is adistribution that has constant probability.

Exponential Growth

Exponential growth is the increase in a quantity according to the law.

Logistical Growth

Logistic Growth Equation When N=98. Agrowth rate of zero means that the population is not growing, which is what happens at carrying capacity because the birth rate usually equals the death rate.

Carrying Capacity

The carrying capacity of a biological species in an environment is the maximum population size of the species that the environment can sustain indefinitely, given the food, habitat, water, and other necessities available in the environment.

Limiting Factors

Limiting factors are things that prevent a population from growing any larger. For example, 10 rabbits may live in a habitat that has enough water, cover and space to support 20 rabbits, but if there is only enough food for ten rabbits, the popula...

Density Dependent Factors

density-dependent factor Any factor limiting the size of a population whose effect is dependent on the number of individuals in the population. For example, disease will have a greater effect in limiting the growth of a large population, since ove...

density-dependent factor Any factor limiting the size of a population whose effect is dependent on the number of individuals in the population. For example, disease will have a greater effect in limiting the growth of a large population, since overcrowding facilitates its spread.

Density Independent Factors

density-independent factor Any factor limiting the size of a population whose effect is not dependent on the number of individuals in the population. An example of such a factor is an earthquake, which will kill all members of the population regar...

density-independent factor Any factor limiting the size of a population whose effect is not dependent on the number of individuals in the population. An example of such a factor is an earthquake, which will kill all members of the population regardless of whether the population is small or large.
