They generally compete for territory, food and mates.
they die or lose their mate

Water and sunlight. Those two things are very important to any plant.
Yes.
One species would be forced to leave.
People often think of evolution as what they call survival of the fittest. However, that means a fight among members of a species. This is not what is really meant. The 'fight' is with the environment and the species and not a fight of one individual with another. If the species has a way of best surviving what the environment throws at it, it will survive. Other species might not and will die out.

Food would be the main area of competition between desert rabbits and mice. Depending on their shared environment, living space (places providing shelter from predators and for sleeping and breeding) might be another area of competition. For example: if food is plentiful, but safe and available living areas are not, they will compete for the latter, while if food is scarce but living space is plentiful, they'll compete for food. If both necessities are scarce, of course, they'll compete for both. If any or all necessities remain scarce, eventually one species will dominate and the other will migrate from, or die out of, that area.
They will compete for it. Competion might not necessarily mean engaging in actual physical conflict, but the species better able to obtain that rescource will prevail over the other.
One species may be eliminated from that ecosystem.
It might get enough energy for its needs, or it might not.Note that this is the usual situation - there are usually other organisms, with which an organism has to compete.
