Answer:

The difference between community and population is discussed below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Community:

  • A collection of a population of different species in a given area that can potentially interact with each other.

characteristics of the community:

  • species diversity: All of the dissimilar species it contains combined with the same copiousness of individuals within each of those species.

Population:

  • A group of individuals who belong to the same species living in the same area.
  • A group of organisms that live in the same land and interbreed with each other.
  • The population of different species interacts and affect one another including humans.
