A population is a group of individuals (all members of a single species) who live together in the same habitat and are likely to interbreed. Each population has a unique physical distribution in time and space. It may contain individuals of different ages, and its size (density) is likely to change over time. It grows or shrinks according to the reproductive success of its members.
All those processes that maintain the body of an organism collectively are called as life processes. These processes principally include Nutrition, Respiration, Internal Transport, and Excretion. Some other processes of life like control and coordination, Reproduction, Heredity and Evolution etc. are essentially found in living beings but they are not directly related to processes of life. Hence, these may or may not be regarded as life processes
Ant colonies are Eusocial which means living in a cooperative group in which usually one female and several males are reproductively active and the non-breeding individuals care for the young and protect the group. These are very much like those found in other social animals though the various groups of these developed sociality independently through convergent evolution.
There are four basic factors that cause population change in a country – Natality or the birth rate, Mortality or…

Living organisms capable of synthesizing food on their own are called as plants. They contain chlorophyll, the green magnesium compound which helps in trapping the energy from sun. This energy runs the process of photosynthesis through which glucose is basically synthesized in leaves and green stems on combining together the atmospheric carbon dioxide and water.
The term animal has its origin from the Latin word animalis which means one who has breath. This word is usually applied for the non-human members of the Kingdom Animalia in animal taxonomy. However, the closer relatives of humans like mammals (having mammary glands) have been included in this term.
