Resource scarcity creates competition among organisms for limited resources such as food, water, and shelter. This competition drives natural selection, with only the most adapted individuals surviving and reproducing. Over time, this process leads to the evolution of traits that allow organisms to better compete for resources in their environment. Ultimately, the survival of organisms depends on their ability to efficiently acquire and utilize scarce resources to meet their basic needs. In environments where resources are abundant, competition may be less intense, allowing for a greater diversity of organisms to coexist.
