Population ecology is a sub-category of ecology that works with species populations' variables and how these populations relate to the environment. This discipline is essential in conservation biology, especially in the advancement of population viability study, which predicts the long-term probability of a species surviving in the environment. This quiz will help you better understand population ecology. Go for it.

A species is a group of organisms that are physically similar and can mate with each other and produce offspring that can also mate and reproduce. A population is more than one specie of organism.
A species is made up of more than one kind of organism that lives in a particular area. A population is all the members of one species that live in a particular area.
A species is the role an organism has in its habitat. A population is the multiple roles of one species in a particular area.

There are usually few organisms at the top because there is a limited amount of energy available at that level of a food web.
There are usually few organisms at the top because the organisms at the top of the food chain care for their young longer than organisms lower on the food chain.
There are usually few organisms at the top because the organisms at the top of the food chain consume are omnivores that consume diverse kinds of organisms that are lower on the food chain.
There are usually few organisms at the top because the organisms at the top of the food chain are scavengers consuming what other organisms have left behind.
