populatio (a people, a multitude), which itself is derived from the Latin word populus (a people).

Terminology

There is no standard terminology to define a population, but there are many definitions of this term. Aside from biology, a population can be commonly defined as a group of units.

Populations can be demographically, spatially, or genetically
