In this module you will learn about the patterns of population distribution and how these patterns evolve through natural selection, so that they allow species to adapt to their environment to obtain the resources they need to successfully reproduce.

In this module you will learn about the main focus on the regulation and dynamics of population growth in relation to the capacity of a habitat in wild animal populations. The module also explains the various characteristics and implications of unchecked human population growth and how humanity affect the carrying capacity of a habitat.

In this module you will learn about the relationships between species, such as how species may form symbiotic relationships and community structure. The module also focuses on how environmental and genetic factors shape behaviour including mating systems, imprinting and methods of communication. The movement and migration patterns of animal species are also covered.
