What is the difference between population and organism?
Ostrovityanka [42]

An organism describes an individual. You are an organism. I am an organism. The mosquito that flies by your window is an organism. An organism is a single, living thing and can be an animal, a plant, or a fungus. Organisms grow and respond to their environment.

A population is the term we use to describe multiple individuals or organisms of a single species that live within a particular geographic area. For example, there may be one population of painted turtles in one state and another population of painted turtles 250 miles away in another state.

What happens to the bunny population if a friend is never added? What happens when you add a friend
pochemuha

While pet rabbits can survive alone without another bunny living with them, they can get very lonely and sad, as rabbits are naturally herd animals. No matter how much human attention they receive, that does not replace attention from a fellow rabbit friend.

When one rabbit is introduced to another rabbit, they may not always get along. However, they will always be very curious when they first meet, and can become close friends after bonding for a while. Keeping close supervision on bunnies when they first meet, however, is very crucial, as they could get into a fight and hurt each other.
