Solution

The correct option is B Manufacturing
Activities that involve the production of raw materials from natural resources such as farming, forestry, fishing, mining, quarrying, and the extraction of minerals are primary sector activities. Manufacturing comes under the secondary sector where goods are produced by transforming raw materials supplied by the primary sector such as sugar from sugarcane, iron from iron ore, and cement from limestone.
