Ecology Interview Question:

How different are the concepts of migration, emigration, and immigration

Submitted by: Administrator

Migration is the moving of individuals of a species from one place to other. Emigration is the migration seen as exit of individuals from one region (to other where they will settle permanently or temporarily). Immigration is the migration seen as the settling in one region (permanently or temporarily) of individuals coming from other region. Therefore, individuals emigrate "from" and immigrate "to".
