[KN] Primary sector provides raw materials for secondary to produce the product using the raw material.
[APP] For instance, a forestry business cuts down trees to provide the secondary sector with wood which they turn it in to furnitur like chair and table.
[AN] This shows that secondary sector depends on the primary sector as it uses their raw material and turn then in to th final product.

KN:The secondary sector depends on raw material supplied by primary sector
App:for example,forest (primary ) provides timber,which furniture factory (secondary) use to make furniture
AN:This shows both sectors are dependent on each other.without raw material from primary sector the secondary cannot function

[KN] Primary sectors provides raw materials and secondary sector businesses use them to manufacture goods.
[APP] For instance, tomatoes are raw materials used by a manufacturing business to make ketchup.
[AN] This allows manufacturing businesses to earn high profits, hence increasing market share as well as sales. The interdependence between these sectors ensures a continuous flow of resources, leading to economic growth and job creation in both industries.

[KN]The secondary sector relies on raw materials from the primary sector to make products.

[APP] For instance, a paper factory (secondary) needs wood from forestry (primary).

[AN]This shows interdependence — without the primary sector providing inputs, the secondary sector cannot produce finished goods.

[KN]The primary and secondary sectors are linked because the secondary sector depends on raw materials from the primary sector to make finished goods.
[APP] For example, farmers in the primary sector grow sugarcane, which is then used by factories in the secondary sector to produce sugar.
[AN] This shows that without the existence of the primary sector, the secondary sector would not have the raw materials it needs to produce finished good which can cause the chain of production to stop.

[kn] the primary sector provides raw materials for the secondary sector to turn into products [app] for example a primary sector harvests wood which the secondary sector turns into paper [an] this shows that the secondary sector relies on the primary sector as without it the secondary sector could not produce anything leading to the sector immediately dying out

[KN] The primary and secondary sectors are linked because the secondary sector depends on raw materials provided by the primary sector. [APP] For example, farmers grow sugarcane in the primary sector, which is then used by food processing factories in the secondary sector to make sugar. [AN] Without the primary sector, manufacturers would have no inputs to process, while the primary sector relies on factories to create finished goods that reach consumers. This shows how both sectors work together in the chain of production.

kn] primary industry provides the raw material which is used by secondary industry to make finished products.
app] for example, wood is taken from forestry to provide wood which is crafted into chair or table
an]this allows the business to charge higher prices, increasing the profit margin, which the business can u to expand in future.

KN = The primary and secondary sectors are closely linked because the secondary sector depends on the raw materials provided by the primary sector.

APP = For example, crude oil is extracted from the earth in the primary sector and then refined in the secondary sector to produce petrol and plastics.

AN = Without the supply of raw materials, factories will have nothing to produce, which will lead to the entire chain of production being halted. Many businesses will be forced to shut down if raw materials are not available, so increasing unemployment and poverty. If raw materials are available, then secondary sector can add value to them,so increasing profitability and boosting overall economic growth.

[KN] A primary sectors provides raw materials to the secondary sector inorder to produce a product
[APP]For example a farmer who is in the primary sector of industry grows tomatoes , which are later brought by factory in the secondary sector inorder to produce the finished good of ketchup
[AN] This link between the two industries is important as without raw materials the secondary sector cannot produce any good .Along with this the secondary sector is important as it adds value to the product making customers more willing to buy the product which can increase the brand image of the business aswell as the sales

[kn] The primary sector provides the raw materials that the secondary sector needs to operate.
[app] For example, farmers grow tomatoes, which are then bought by food processing factories to be turned into ketchup or sauces.
[an+] This shows how the secondary sector depends on the primary sector for inputs, creating a direct link between the two.

The primary sector provides raw materials which the secondary sector uses for production. For example, a farmer grows tomatoes, and a factory buys them to make ketchup. This shows the link as secondary production depends on primary goods.

(KN)
The primary sector provides raw materials and the secondary sector uses them to make finished products.
(APP)
For example, farmers (primary sector) grow cotton, and then a factory ( secondary sector) turns the cotton into the clothes.
(APP)
This shows the link without the primary sector, the secondary would not have materials to produce goods.

[KN] Primary sector is involved in extracting resources from the land and provide them to the secondary sector where these resources are manufactured into a useful product.
[APP]A primary sector forestry business cuts down trees and provides wood to another wooden furniture secondary sector business where the wood is then manufactured into furniture like table,chair etc.
[AN]This link helps keep the businesses organized and specialized in their specific task which ensures efficiency and good quality output.
