Report Abuse. POPULATION PARAMETER(p) is a value used to represent a certain QUANTIFIABLE characteristic of a population. This is like the mean or variance of a population and often these values are unknown, and are estimated using sample data.
A population is a summation of all the organisms of the same group or species, which live in a particular geographical area, and have the capability of interbreeding. In ecology, the population of a certain species in a certain area is estimated using the Lincoln Index. The area that is used to define a sexual population is defined as the area where inter-breeding is potentially possible between any pair within the area.
