Population
In
biology, a population is a number of
all the organisms of the same group
or species who live in a particular
geographical area and are capable of
interbreeding. The area of a sexual
population is the area where inter-breeding
is possible between any pair within
the area and more probable than cross-breeding
with individuals from other areas.
In
sociology, population refers to a collection
of humans. Demography is a social science
which entails the statistical study
of populations. Population, in simpler
terms, is the number of people in a
city or town, region, country or world;
population is usually determined by
a process called census (a process of
collecting, analyzing, compiling and
publishing data).
