Answer:

Organisms of the same species can live in different areas, whereas, organisms of the same population must live in the same area.

Step-by-step explanation:

Biologically, a species is generally defined as a group of organisms that are morphologically similar and are capable of mating which results in the production fertile offspring.

Biological population, on the other hand consists of organisms of the same species living in the same area with the capacity to interact, mate and produce fertile offspring.

While organisms of the same species can live in different areas, organisms that belong to the same population must live within the same area and capable of interacting.
