The number of individuals per unit of area
Real World Example
Imagine you're at a crowded concert trying to find a spot to stand comfortably. Just like you're counting how many people are squeezed into a small section of the venue, scientists measure population density by counting how many individuals live in a specific area. The concept of population density is similar to your concert experience because both situations involve figuring out how many "units" (people or organisms) fit into a given "space" (concert section or geographical area), illustrating how crowded or spacious that area is.
