Meaning

Competition is when different organisms within a community or population are seeking the same limited resource.

About Competition

Competition happens because there is not enough of a resource to keep all of the organisms within a community or population alive.
When organisms compete for the same resource some will lose and others will win. This is referred to as survival of the fittest.
