Model Answer
(A) a-(ii), b-(iii), c-(i)
A sugarcane farmer belongs to the Primary Sector; a brick kiln converting earth into bricks belongs to the Secondary Sector; a cobbler repairing shoes belongs to the Tertiary Sector.
Explanation
- Primary Sector: Activities that directly use natural resources (farming, mining, fishing). A sugarcane farmer grows a natural product → Primary.
- Secondary Sector: Activities that transform natural/raw materials into finished goods (manufacturing, construction). A brick kiln converts earth (raw material) into bricks → Secondary.
- Tertiary Sector: Activities that provide services rather than goods. A cobbler repairs shoes — this is a service activity → Tertiary.
