Since resources are limited,the society cannot get all the goods and services the people want.And hence some mechanisms are used to guide the use of resources in the production of goods and services to satisfy as many as people wants as possible.
When the society do not know what to produce,the Production Possibility Frontier [PPF] is used to represent a boundary between those combination of goods and services which can be produced and those which cannot be produced.
Scarcity means shortage.
Time, jobs, money, diamond, water
abundance of oil but a scarcity of water. :)
The high price and scarcity of goods.
scarcity
Scarcity, on a PPC (PPF) is implied by the bowed (concave-down) shape of the curve, since there is a restriction on how much can be produced and, to get more of something, one must give away something else.
Production Possibility Curve this is an image of a ppf/ ppc
A point outside a PPC shows the problem of scarcity. A point outside the Production Possibility Curve shows a combination that cannot be attained because sufficient quantity of resources are not available to produce them.
simplifying assumptions, but is still useful for illustrating scarcity, opportunity cost, and economic growth.

because of the scarcity
it represents the boundary between the goods that are attainable and unattainable within an economy. Inside and along the ppf means that goods are attainable and outside the ppf menas the goods are unattainable and it thereby shows scarcity
Scarcity is the non-abundance of resources. Resources are needed to produce. Thus, the more that is produced, the more resources are being used.
