Define population
उत्तर
A population is a group of individuals of the same species capable of interbreeding among themselves found in a geographical area. For example, all the frogs identified as Rana tigrina living in a given pond constitute a population. Similarly, all water hyacinth plants (Eichhornia) growing in that pond form another population. Organisms of the same kind may form several populations inhabiting different geographical areas.
