Q1.
Label the pictures in the illustration shown in Fig. 14.1 on page 206 as: 1. Primary sector 2. Secondary sector 3. Tertiary sector
Answer
The eight pictures of Fig. 14.1 in order, colour-coded by sector.
Here is every picture of Fig. 14.1 labelled, in the order the arrows run. Write the label on the line printed under each picture in your book.
| Picture | What it shows | Label | Why |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cutting down the tree with a power saw | Primary sector | Timber is taken directly from nature — this is forestry |
| 2 | Machine collecting and stacking the logs | Primary sector | Still part of extracting the forest produce; the wood has not been changed in any way |
| 3 | Loading the logs on to a truck | Tertiary sector | Handling and loading is a service — the wood is only being moved, not made into anything |
| 4 | Truck carrying the logs to the mill | Tertiary sector | Transportation, named as a tertiary activity on page 201 |
| 5 | Paper being made from pulp in the mill | Secondary sector | Wood changes form — logs become pulp, pulp becomes paper |
| 6 | Forklift moving cartons of paper into the press | Tertiary sector | Storing, loading and delivering — a logistics service |
| 7 | Printing the pages of the textbook | Secondary sector | Blank paper is manufactured into a printed, bound book |
| 8 | Buying the book at a shop | Tertiary sector | Retail trade — selling in small quantities to the end consumer |
Primary — pictures 1, 2
Secondary — pictures 5, 7
Tertiary — pictures 3, 4, 6, 8
Secondary — pictures 5, 7
Tertiary — pictures 3, 4, 6, 8
If your teacher counts picture 3 as primary: that is defensible too — loading at the forest site can be treated as the last step of harvesting the timber. What must never change is the reasoning: taking from nature is primary, changing the form is secondary, moving or selling is tertiary. Say why you chose your label and your answer is complete.
