Question

Which choice describes a population? A. all the gray squirrels that live in a forest B. a nonliving factor in an organism's environment C. an area characterized by a group of plants and animals D. all the organisms that interact in a lake

Answer 1

I believe D. because all the organisms that live in a lake can be a bunch of living things that would be considered a population and not a species. I canceled out B. from the get go because, I don’t believe non living organisms can be in a population ?

Please get back to me if I’m right or wrong :)
