Competition. The struggle of the fittest. The survival of the fittest.
There is a constant struggle for survival among organisms within a population because they are all competing for the same resources. Since resources are limited, some of the organisms may end up without the things they need for survival.
Intraspecific association is a relationship between members of the same species. When resources are limited, the members will fight each other for control.
The useful traits in livingthings are used for competing. Useful traits includes features that allows an organism to survive in their environment. Examples of useful traits is the development of broad leaves in plants which exposes them to enough sunlight compared to plants with reduced leaves especially in a rain forest zone or habitat. The later plants are easily wiped away from the population, leaving behind plants with broad leaves.
The simple answer would be resources. There is always a limited amount of resources, and when they are more scarce, competition is more fierce. Few animals (lions and hyenas are one example) compete out of a perceived hatred for each other (people may be another), so competition is usually about survival. Injury often equals death in the wild, so rarely will animals compete physically for food/water/territory/mating rights unless their livlihood depends on it.
Anaerobic organisms do not require oxygen to survive. On earth, those organisms are limited to many types of bacteria and obligate anaerobes.
We know that organisms that must struggle to survive in a habitat with limited resources will be in competition to do so.
Just competition.
The struggle that occurs between organisms for food and water and energy when resources are limited is called competition. Competition can kill animals.
The struggle between orginisms for limited resource is called competiton
Competition: intraspecifically (between members of the same species) or interspecifically (between members of different species).

Living beings need a certain amount of resources to live. If resources are limited then organisms must struggle against others to get enough resources to keep living.
Competition: intraspecifically (between members of the same species) or interspecifically (between members of different species).
The selection of the organism that survives best in a habitat with limited resources and that organisms superior reproductive success is called natural selection.
Competition occurs when organisms existing at the same time and in the same place struggle for the same limited resources. This is one of the three major types of interactions among organisms, the other two being predation and symbiosis.
