Answer: B

Step-by-step explanation:

Population size focuses on the size of the population. That is, the total number of organisms in a population.

While population density focuses on the density of the population. That is, mean number of organisms per unit area or volume.

Therefore, Population size is the total number of organisms, while population density is the total number of

organisms within a given area
