Background and context
The grouping of similar, interbreeding individuals belonging to the same species living in a particular geographical area or space is termed as population. An area of the population may have natural or artificial barriers that separate it. The study of populations helps ecologists to understand the effects of abiotic and biotic components on individuals of that population that may explain the cause behind the change in population size over time.
