A population is a group of individuals of the same species that live in the same area and interact with one another. Populations can vary in size, density, distribution, and age structure. They can also exhibit characteristics such as growth rate, reproductive patterns, and genetic diversity. Populations are dynamic and can change over time in response to environmental factors, natural disasters, and human activities.
