Resource scarcity, competition, and the survival of organisms are interlinked in a cyclical relationship. Resource scarcity refers to the limited availability of essential resources required for the survival of organisms, such as food, water, and shelter. As these resources become scarce, organisms are compelled to compete with one another for their acquisition. This competition is a natural selection process that determines the survival of the fittest, as only the organisms that are best adapted to secure and utilize limited resources will survive and reproduce. Thus, resource scarcity drives competition among organisms, and the outcome of this competition ultimately determines which organisms are able to survive and pass on their traits to future generations.
