Malthus's idea that resources are limited contributed to Darwin's natural selection concept.
Explanation: Malthus argued populations tend to grow faster than resources, creating a "struggle for existence." Darwin used this idea to explain how heritable variation that improves survival and reproduction is favored — the basis of natural selection.
