Why are there fifty-two cards in a pack?

If your question refers to the structure of the cards, there are four suits, each with 13 cards:

A,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,J,Q,K

If your question refers to why these cards were selected, the popular answer is that there are four suits for the four seasons and thirteen cards in each because there are thirteen weeks in a season. As you can see, the 52 cards correspond with the fact that a year has 52 weeks.

What does population size means?

Statistics often requires one to make estimates of some measure (variable) about a set of units. The total number of such units is the population size.

Note that population, in this context, need not refer to people. If the study is about household expenditure on food (in some area), then the population is all households and the population size is the number of households (in that area). If the study is about diversity of insects in a field, the population may be all 1-metre squares in the field, and the size of the population will be the number of such plots - which will equal the area of the field.
