Is community a part of population?

Answer 1

Communities have certain things in common, more than members of a population. Communities can be tied together by common goals and interests; common language; common ethnicity; or just their location. A population refers to everyone in a country and the only thing they have in common is being within the boundaries of that particular territory.

Population - a group of organisms, or living things, which are members or the same species which live in the same place at the same time. Same species would be organisms with similar characteristics and are able to interbreed to produce offspring.

Community - All of the different populations living in the same general environment

Answer 2

Yes, a community is a group of people living in the same area or sharing common characteristics within a population, which is the total number of people or organisms in a particular area. So, community is a subset of the larger population.

Answer 3

In the systematic organization of an ecosystem, the smallest unit is an individual organism (e.g. maple tree), then a population which is a group of the same type of organism (e.g. all the maple trees in a given area.) The next most complex unit is a community, which is all the living things in a given area (a maple forest, including all plants, animals, fungi, microorganisms that live in the forest etc.). The largest unit is an ecosystem, which adds all the non-living components to the living things. So, not only the forest flora and fauna, but also the rain, the inorganic parts of the soil, solar radiation, etc.

Answer 4

ecosystems are larger than communities

ecosystem: abiotic + biotic factors

community: all living organisms

Answer 5

It depends on the amount of people in a community

Answer 6

A population is how many people are in an area, and a community is the combination of populations in a certain area. Thus, communities would be larger since they hold multiple populations.
