42 14. selling a good is an example of what type of economic activity? mark only one oval. secondary tertiary quaternary 43. 15. a beverage bottling plant would be an example of which of the following? mark only one oval. bulk-gaining industry bulk-reducing industry perishable industry 4. 16. in which of the following categories of jobs does manufacturing fall? mark only one oval. primary secondary tertiary unit 5: urban and environmental geography 1. in central place theory, the market area of a service is defined by what two factors? mark only one oval. transportation and wages range and threshold agglomeration and land usage

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  • Question 14: Tertiary economic activities involve the provision of services. Selling a good is a service - oriented activity as it involves facilitating the exchange of goods (a service to producers and consumers). Secondary activities are manufacturing (e.g., making the good), and quaternary activities are knowledge - based (e.g., research and development).
  • Question 15: A beverage bottling plant takes in ingredients (which are relatively light in bulk) and adds water (a very bulky and heavy component that is locally sourced in large quantities). Bulk - gaining industries add weight or bulk during the production process. Bulk - reducing industries (e.g., copper mining where only a small portion of the ore is refined) and perishable industries (e.g., fresh fruit markets where the product spoils quickly) are different.
  • Question 16: Manufacturing is a secondary activity. Primary activities are related to the extraction of natural resources (e.g., farming, mining). Tertiary activities are service - based.
  • Question 1 (Unit 5): In central place theory, the range is the maximum distance a consumer will travel to access a service, and the threshold is the minimum number of consumers needed to support a service. Transportation and wages are more related to economic geography in terms of production costs. Agglomeration (clustering of firms) and land usage are urban geography concepts but not the defining factors of a service's market area in central place theory.

Answer:

  1. Tertiary
  2. Bulk - Gaining Industry
  3. secondary
  4. (Unit 5) range and threshold
