Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Scarcity describes the condition in which our wants are greater than the resources available to satisfy those wants.

Detailed explanation-2: -Scarcity exists when human wants for goods and services exceed the available supply.

Detailed explanation-3: -Demand-induced scarcity reflecting rising demand. Supply-induced scarcity caused by diminished supply. Structural scarcity attributable to mismanagement or inequality.

Detailed explanation-4: -Absolute scarcity describes resources that are fixed in supply and cannot be increased or decreased, regardless of demand. Their supply is hard-capped due to intrinsic limitations. There is no ability to generate more of an absolutely scarce resource, and there are no true substitutes.

Detailed explanation-5: -Economics is about making choice in presence of scarcity because of the fact that our wants are unlimited and the resources to fulfil them are limited . so we have to make choice between the scarce resources, therefore we can say that the economics is about making choice in scarcity.
