In realistic models in population ecology individuals are distinguished from one another according to relevant quantities such as age, weight, amount of toxic substances accumulated in the body etc. (Streifer, 1974). The state of the individual (i-state) is given by the values of these quantities, whereas the state of the population (p-state) is given by the distribution (or density) function describing the number of individuals within each i-state.
