Detailed explanation-1: -The number of individuals living within that specific location determines the population density, or the number of individuals divided by the size of the area. Population density can be used to describe the location, growth, and migration of many organisms.
Detailed explanation-2: -Individuals of a population can be spaced in different ways called dispersion patterns. In uniform dispersion, individuals are evenly spaced. In random dispersion, individuals are randomly arranged. The most common spatial arrangement is clumped dispersion in which individuals are clustered together.
