Arithmetic density refers to the total number of people per unit area of land, calculated by dividing the population by the total land area. In contrast, physiological density measures the number of people per unit area of arable land, focusing on the population supported by land suitable for agriculture. This distinction highlights how arithmetic density can be misleading in assessing population pressure on resources, while physiological density provides insight into the sustainability of agricultural practices in relation to population.
