From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. A population is all the organisms that both belong to the same species and live in the same geographical area. The area that is used to define the population is such that inter-breeding is possible between any pair within the area and more probable than cross-breeding with individuals from other areas. Normally breeding is substantially more common within the area than across the border. In sociology, a collection of human beings. Statistical study of human populations occurs within the discipline of demography. This article refers mainly to human population. From Wikipedia under the

Q. Consider a rabbit population P(t) satistying the logistic equation. If the intial population is 120 rabbits and there are 8 births per month and 6 deaths per month occurring at t=0, how many months does it take for P(t) to reach 95% of the limiting population M? Asked by Larry L - Wed Nov 5 20:22:34 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. The differential form of the logistic equation is: dP/dt = r*P - (r/M)*P^2 where P is the population as a function of time r is the growth rate M is the carrying capacity (the limiting population) In the above equation, the first term on the right hand side represents unfetttered exponential growth of a population (i.e., the birth rate), while the second term represents the effects of competition and death. We can equate the first term with the birth rate to find the value of r for this problem: 8 rabbits/month = r*P(0) = r*120 rabbits r = 1/(15 month) Now equate the second term with the death rate to find M: 6 rabbits/month = 1/((15 month)*M) * (120 rabbits)^2 M = 160 rabbits The solution to the logistic differential equation is: [cont.] Answered by hfshaw - Thu Nov 6 16:13:49 2008 What is the minimal population necessary for a modern society? Q. Can a population smaller than 2 milion people sustain the levels of a modern western style society? thnx Mythological Beast I think you are also talking about the survival of the species here! A minimal regret-society is based on 10 milion people but is this the minimum to sustain the society itself or the species? Asked by daanlevi - Tue Nov 6 15:58:43 2007 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. Grog is wrong. There is definitely a minimum requirement. Just the transportation issue necessary to turn raw goods into finished products requires that we have a minimum supply of people in the various places where the materials are mined and produced, plus a bunch to move it from one place to another, maintain roads, etc. I don't know if anyone's calculated it, but there are two ways to approach it. If you wonder how many people it would take to maintain small settlements then you have a smaller number than if you calculate how many people we would need to survive a [plague|meteor strike|WW3|insert disaster here] for us to not fall back into feudalism.

Q. Since Amish people don't use technology, do you think the population will fade later in the future? Asked by Andrew - Sat Aug 11 19:06:12 2007 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. In this century the Old Order Amish population has grown very rapidly. In 1900 there were approximately 3,700 Amish in North America. By 1990 the estimated figure had increased to 127,800 (adult membership approximately 56,200). According to sociologist Julia Erickson and her colleagues, the Amish are among the fastest-growing populations in the world. They prohibit the use of contraception and have low infant mortality rates. The average Amish woman can expect to have at least seven live births.
