Even the most accomplished scientist would only have a rough guess.
The population size of predator species is typically controlled by the availability of prey, competition with other predators, and environmental factors like habitat and climate. The population size can fluctuate based on these factors, leading to dynamic predator-prey relationships.
Population size refers to the total number of individuals in a specific area, while population density is the number of individuals per unit area. Population size gives the total count of individuals, while population density provides a measure of how crowded or sparse the population is in a given area.
Population change refers to any increase or decrease in the size of a population, whereas population growth specifically refers to the overall increase in the population size over a given period, often expressed as a percentage. Population change can be influenced by factors such as births, deaths, immigration, and emigration, while population growth focuses on the net increase in population size resulting from these factors.
The growth of the population would be 3% each year. This means that the population size would increase by 3% of its current size every year.
Population density is the size of a population that occupies a specific area. It is calculated by dividing the total population by the area they inhabit, usually expressed as individuals per square kilometer or square mile. It is a useful measure to understand how crowded or dispersed a population is in a given area.
Yes, diatomaceous earth can kill earthworms by dehydrating them. However, its effectiveness in controlling their population may vary depending on factors such as application method, environmental conditions, and the size of the earthworm population.
earth worms can grow up to about the size of a snake.
No, earthworms do not go through metamorphosis. They hatch from eggs as small versions of adult worms and grow in size as they mature.

It is the set of all units which are being studied. If I am looking at the area of countries, then the population is the set of all countries; if I am studying the earthworms in my garden then the population might be each 20 cm* 20 cm square of my garden (I sample some squares and count the earthworms in them).
Even the most accomplished scientist would only have a rough guess.
Earthworms can vary greatly in size, depending on the species. They range from just a few inches long to as much as 22 feet in length. In the United States, the most common earthworms are anywhere from about 4 to 6 inches long.

Relative population size is the size of an area's population as it compares to similar areas' populations. For example, the relative population size of a country would be what rank it had compared to the population of other countries.
Population density
The number of individuals in the population is the population's size. If a population is small enough you will be able to determine the size by counting the individuals.
