KEY CONCEPT Each population has a density, a dispersion, and a reproductive strategy.

Population density is the number of individuals that live in a defined area. Population density is a measurement of the number of individuals living in a defined space. Scientists can calculate population density. It is calculated using the formula:

Population dispersion refers to how a population is spread in an area. Geographic dispersion of a population shows how individuals in a population are spaced. Population dispersion refers to how a population is spread in an area. There are three dispersions types Clumped dispersion Uniform Random

There are three types of dispersion. clumped

There are three types of dispersion. uniform

There are three types of dispersion. random

Survivorship curves help to describe the reproductive strategy of a species. A survivorship curve is a diagram showing the number of surviving members over time from a measured set of births.

Survivorship curves can be type I, II or III. Type I—low level of infant mortality and an older population common to large mammals and humans Type II—survivorship rate is equal at all stages of life common to birds and reptiles Type III—very high birth rate, very high infant mortality common to invertebrates and plants
