5. What do you call a group of similar organisms from the same locality?

Populations

A population, such as these penguins. When a species may have groups of individuals that are located in different locations, these then would be separate populations, all derived from the same species. Sometimes the populations are under different conditions, and their adaptations can cause them to look differently or behave differently from other populations of the same species.
