Economists refer to scarce resources as "factors of production" or "economic resources." These include land, labor, capital, and entrepreneurship, which are limited in availability and necessary for producing goods and services. Scarcity necessitates making choices about how to allocate these resources efficiently to meet the needs and wants of society. This fundamental principle underlies much of economic theory and decision-making.

To satisfy the whole Economy's needs and wants with the use of scarce resources, and because Productivity applies to all factors of production.
resources are devoted to increasing future output.
Economists believe that all goods and services are scarce because all the resources used to create them are scarce. It's like a cycle. Land is all the natural resources that create all the goods and services, if this is scarce then there would be no coal or oil to fuel machines that help keep the natural resources going (capital). If there are no machines to work with then the job becomes hard for workers to do, meaning very few people would do such a job (labor). It's all a cycle of limited resources.
Economists use the term demand to refer to a schedule of various combinations of market prices and amounts demanded.
