The range of an organism and its dispersal is limited or affected by many things in its surroundings. These things can be slightly different in their specifics from organism to organism but generally‚ for all organisms‚ these are the main restrictions to their range and dispersal (either natal or breeding). The first limiting factor to the distance they can travel from their population or parent is the resources available. One artificial barrier is habitat fragmentation by humans and their use of

DFD Yourdon Recently reviewed In the late 1970s data-flow diagrams (DFDs) were introduced and popularized for structured analysis and design (Gane and Sarson 1979). DFDs show the flow of data from external entities into the system‚ showed how the data moved from one process to another‚ as well as its logical storage. Figure 1 presents an example of a DFD using the Gane and Sarson notation. There are only four symbols: Squares representing external entities‚ which are sources or destinations
