Aims	Getting to know the structure and dynamics of populations and relationships within and between them
Learning outcomes	After the student passes this exam, he/she will be able to: 1. Define and explain the basic terms related to population and its characteristics, spatial and genetic structure and dynamics 2. Distinguish types of population growth in nature (limited and unlimited growth) and analyze the factors that influence and condition that dynamic 3. Recognize different strategies in the extension of the species and understand what in nature conditions them and in what way 4. Understand the types of interactions within the population and between populations and explain what laws these interactions are based on 5. Apply the acquired knowledge in practical research in the field and predict and conclude how certain factors in the environment, including anthropogenic influence, can affect a population
