• Birth & Death
• Movement: Dispersal & Migration
• Population Dynamics
All questions in ecology can be reduced to attempts to understand the distributions and abundances of organisms, and the process that determine distribution and abundance.
Population is a group of individuals of one species.

엄친아는 '엄마 친구의 아들' 또는 '엄마친구아들'의 줄임말로 대한민국에서 유행하는 용어이다. 고정된 의미는 없으나 주로 여러가지 조건을 갖춘 완벽한 남자의 은유로 사용된다. 사용 빈도가 늘어나면서 점차 일반 명사화되었다.[1]. 여성형은 엄친딸이다. '어머니들이 생각하는, 무엇이든지 잘 하고 완벽한 조건을 갖춘 이상형의 남자'[2] 를 뜻하거나 '모든 것이 나보다 뛰어난 자'[3], '아무리 노력해도 이길 수 없는 존재[4]'를 의미하기도 한다. 유명 연예인들 중 외모에 덤으로 학벌을 겸한 경우를 엄친아라고 부르기도 한다

Chapter 6: Interspecific Competition
• Intro
• Ecological effects of interspecific competition
• Evolutionary effects of interspecific competition
• Interspecific competition and community structure
• How significant is interspecific competition in practice?
The possible and actual consequence of competition
• What a process can do – What Interspecific competition is capable of doing
• What a process does do – What Interspecific competition actually does in
practice
