Answer:

The correct word for the blank space is: lower; buyers to offer higher prices.

Explanation:

In a market driven by supply and demand laws, shortages are caused because of excess in demand as a result of lower prices. Thus, that price is lower than the equilibrium price. Besides, if there is a need to push that price to its equilibrium level, sellers will have to increase the price implying buyers will have to offer higher prices.
