Birth Rate: This is the rate at which new individuals are born into a population. It's like how many new players join our game of musical chairs.
Death Rate: This is the rate at which individuals die in a population. In our analogy, it's similar to how many players get out from our game.
Carrying Capacity: This is the maximum number of individuals that an environment can support indefinitely without degradation. It's like having only so many chairs available for everyone playing musical chairs.
