KN: primary sector involves extraction of natural resources (raw material) such as fishing, mining and farming while secondary sector uses raw material (from primary sector) to produce finish product
APP: for example,mining iron ore is a primary sector while using iron ore to produce car is a secondary sector
AN:The primary sector provides input and the secondary sector adds value by creating useable product for the customer

[KN] The primary sector involves extracting natural resources, while the secondary sector is linked with manufacturing of products from those resources (raw materials).
[APP] For example, mining companies extract iron ore in the primary sector which is then used by factories in the secondary sector to produce steel cars.
[AN] This shows that the primary sector provides the essential raw materials The secondary sector adds value by turning them into usable finished products, so both are connected and ensure a smooth production.

[KN] The difference between the primary and secondary sectors of industry is that the primary sector is involved in extracting natural resources, while the secondary sector focuses on transforming those raw materials into finished or semi-finished goods.
[APP] For example, in the primary sector, forestry businesses cut down trees and prepare timber. In the secondary sector, furniture manufacturers then use this timber to produce wooden chairs and tables and add value by designing, processing and assembling products, which makes them suitable for sale to consumers.
[AN] Therefore, while the primary sector provides the foundation by supplying raw materials, the secondary sector develops these resources into higher-value goods.

[KN] The primary sector involes extracting the raw materials whereas secondary sector is about using the raw materials to produce the finished good.
[APP] For instance, iron is mined by primary sector but that iron is used to produce the steel car is done byy secondary sector.
[AN] Thus this shows that both the sectors are important in playing their own roles to fulfil peoples needs and wants.

[KN] The primary sector involves the extraction of natural resources or raw materials from the earth e.g. mining whereas The secondary sector involves the manufacturing or processing of those raw materials into finished goods
[APP] e.g. a company operates in mining of iron whereas companies like toyota utilize those raw materials and turn them into finished goods
[AN]thus, while the primary sector help supplying raw materials, the secondary sector develops these resources and turn theminto higher-value goods

[KN] The primary sector involves obtaining natural resources, while the secondary sector focuses on converting those resources into finished products.
[APP] For example, the primary sector supplies wool, and a manufacturer then uses it to create sweaters.
[AN] The combined efforts of these two sectors help to ensure an adequate supply of sweaters during the colder months, providing warmth for consumers, benefiting business owners with increased revenue, and expanding their presence in the market.

[kn] The primary sector extracts natural resources, while the secondary sector processes these resources into finished goods.

[APP] For example, forestry companies cut down trees (primary), and furniture manufacturers turn the wood into chairs (secondary).

[AN]This shows how the sectors are interdependent — without raw materials from the primary sector, the secondary sector cannot produce finished products.

[KN] The primary sector is concerned with extracting natural resources, while the secondary sector is focused on turning those raw materials into finished goods.
[APP] For example, farmers in the primary sector grow cotton, while factories in the secondary sector use that cotton to make clothes.
[AN] This shows that the secondary sector depends on the primary sector to supply raw materials, and together they form different but connected stages in the chain of production.

[KN] The primary sector produces raw materials, whereas the secondary sector is focused on turning those raw materials into finished goods.
[APP] For example, wood cutters in the primary sector cuts the wood that is needed for the manufacturing of the furniture. While factories in the secondary sector use that wood to make furniture.
[AN] This shows that the secondary sector depends on the primary sector to supply raw materials, and secondary sector uses that to produce finished goods which shows they both depend on eachother which makes the base of the production chain.

[kn] the primary sector harvests raw materials while the secondary sector produces the products [app] for example the primary sector harvests wood which the secondary sector turns into chairs sofas etc [an] thus this shows the sectors are completely different but both are vital in the creation of a product

[KN] The primary sector involves extracting natural resources, such as farming, mining, and fishing. In contrast, the secondary sector takes these raw materials and processes them into finished goods.[APP] For example, a farmer grows cotton in the primary sector, while a textile factory turns that cotton into clothes in the secondary sector. [AN] The key difference is that the primary sector provides raw inputs, while the secondary sector adds value by manufacturing products.

[KN]Primary sector is the extraction of raw materials whereas the secondary sector manufactures IT
[APP]For example primary sector exract the raw material iron ore which is then used by the secondary sector to manufcture steel cars
[AN]hence this shows tha the primary sector is the first stage of the production process whereas the secondary is used to manufacture it

KN: Primary sector focuses on extraction of resources. while secondary sector focuses on manufacturing of goods.
APP: For example mining companies extract iron from the ground, while secondary sector processes that iron into making steel rods which are used for making houses and roads.
AN: This allows both the industries to make profits and earn higher incomes which will allow growth and expansion of both industries. and create employment which will stabalize the economy.

(KN)
The primary sector is about getting natural resources from nature ,like farming , mining and fishing.
(APP)
The secondary sector is about turning those raw materials into products , like making wood into furniture or cotton into clothes.
(AN)
So, the main difference is that the primary sector provides the raw materials and the secondary sector changes them into finished goods people can use.
