Answer to Question 1

Scarcity exists because resources are limited while wants are unlimited. Scarcity means we are unable to have as much as we would like. Economics is the study of how human beings attempt to maximize satisfaction in the face of scarcity.

This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition.
