Primary sector: Activities include harvesting, collecting or extraction of raw materials from the nature– for example: fishing, Farming, Forestry etc.                                                                                                                                                                                     (2)

 • Secondary sector: It is the Processing of raw materials from primary sector and supplies to tertiary sector.                              (2)

 • Tertiary sector: Activities include bringing the products from the secondary sector to the end consumers, transport of people, communications, and many other services such as education, health, banking and administration.                                              (2)

Conclusion

In Summary the primary sector gathers the raw materials, the secondary sector puts the raw materials to use, and the tertiary sector sells and supports the activities of the other two. Many companies will have components of all three sectors, such as a dairy farmer who makes cheese and ice cream and distributes the products to stores for sale
