Resource scarcity, competition, and the survival of organisms are interconnected. Resource scarcity refers to the limited availability of essential resources like food, water, and shelter. This scarcity creates competition among organisms as they struggle to obtain enough resources to survive and reproduce. Organisms that are better adapted to compete for and utilize scarce resources are more likely to survive and pass on their advantageous traits, leading to the overall survival of their species. In this way, competition driven by resource scarcity is a key factor in determining which organisms thrive and which ones are at a higher risk of extinction.
