- 2. (d) tertiary — Services belong to the tertiary sector.

- 6. The value of all final goods and services produced in a country in a year.
- 7. Economic activities are classified into three sectors. The primary sector produces goods directly from natural resources, such as agriculture, fishing, forestry and mining; it is the base on which the others depend. The secondary sector processes the raw materials from the primary sector into finished goods through manufacturing, for example turning cotton into cloth or iron ore into steel. The tertiary sector, also called the service sector, does not produce goods but provides services that support the other two, such as transport, banking, trade, communication and education. The three sectors are interdependent: a farmer's crop (primary) is processed into food products in factories (secondary) and then carried, stored and sold through services (tertiary), showing how the whole economy works together.
