Summary Introduction
To determine:
The methods of measuring population density.
Introduction:
Population density is the number of a specific type of individuals living in a specified area for a given period of time. The population density can be calculated for plants, microbes, humans, domestic animals and so on. The population density gives information about how many individuals are being supported by the
