Question

Match List-I with List-II:

• (A) – (IV), (B) – (I), (C) – (III), (D) – (II)
• (A) – (III), (B) – (II), (C) – (I), (D) – (IV)
• (A) – (I), (B) – (II), (C) – (III), (D) – (IV)
• (A) – (III), (B) – (IV), (C) – (I), (D) – (II)

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

To solve the matching problem, we need to understand the definitions and classifications of the terms provided in List-I and match them with the appropriate terms in List-II:

• Quaternary: This sector involves knowledge-based services and processes. This typically includes information technology, research and development, and other knowledge-based services.
• Manufacturing: This refers to the processing of raw materials into finished goods. It's commonly associated with factory operations and production lines.
• Secondary: This sector includes industries that produce a finished, usable product or are involved in construction.
• Mining: This is the process or industry of obtaining coal or other minerals from a mine.

Thus, the correct matches are : (A) – (IV), (B) – (I), (C) – (III), (D) – (II)

Answer 2

Let’s match the economic activities with their examples:

• (A) Quaternary – (IV) Research scientist: Quaternary activities involve knowledge-based services such as research, education, and information technology. A research scientist fits this category.
• (B) Secondary – (I) Manufacturing: Secondary activities involve the processing of raw materials into finished goods, which is manufacturing. This is a clear example of secondary economic activity.
• (C) Tertiary – (III) Taxi services: Tertiary activities are service-based industries that provide services rather than goods. Taxi services are part of this service sector.
• (D) Primary – (II) Mining: Primary activities involve the extraction of natural resources, and mining is a primary activity as it involves extracting minerals from the earth.

Thus, the correct answer is (A): (A) – (IV), (B) – (I), (C) – (III), (D) – (II).
