Question

Identify the activity that comes under the agriculture and related sectors.

• A. Sending agricultural products via truck
• B. Extracting minerals and ores
• C. Using cotton to make cloth
• D. Using bricks to make houses

Answer 1

The correct option is B Extracting minerals and ores

The primary sector of the economy includes industries involved in extracting and producing raw materials, such as farming, logging, hunting, fishing, and mining. Sending agricultural products via truck falls under transportation and hence, is classified as a tertiary sector activity. Using cotton to make cloth and using bricks to make houses are classified as secondary sector activities.
