economics
A market mechanism rations scarce goods and services by adjusting prices based on supply and demand dynamics. When a good is scarce, its price typically rises, leading to decreased demand and increased supply as producers are incentivized to create more. This price signal helps allocate resources efficiently, ensuring that those who value the good the most are willing to pay for it. Ultimately, the market balances the availability of goods with consumer preferences through this pricing mechanism.
A price coordinated economy is one where prices determine the allocation of scarce goods and services.
All resources are scarce.
What are all goods and services scarce
Generally, because supplies are never infinite, the opposite of scarce. For many goods, demand is constant or growing, and supply is NOT.

Resources are limited .
the prices increases, and the goods become expensive.
Why the price mechanism is not always efficient at delivering public goods, merit goods and de-merit goods
The price mechanism as you put it, is actually the way that goods are exchanged for money. If the price is too high not many goods are sold, if it is too low, stocks quickly depleate. So this mechanism is the methods by which the price and the quantity being sold over a specific short time become equivalent to the rate at which the goods are being currently produced.
True. Because all resources are limited and become scarce.
Free goods are gift of nature .Their supply is unlimited .They are not scarce though they are useful.
