Emmigration

Emigration is the act of leaving one's native habitat to go to another.(2) Emigration occurs when more than one organism leave an area. When this happens the number of the population will decrease.(1) An organisms habitat provides it with the resources it needs to survive. These resources include water, food,space, and shelter. When there is a shortage of these resources, organisms will emigrate(3). When the weather changes from warm to cold organisms leave to go find a warmer habitat. Different organisms emigrate for different reasons. Organisms need different qualities and different needs to survive. When there is an over population of organisms sometimes the organims wil emigrate.(4)
