✓
Answer
Secondary activities add values to natural resources by transforming raw materials into valuable products. Three examples are:
Cotton in the ball has limited use but after it is transformed into yarn, becomes more valuable and can be used for making clothes and garments
Iron ore can be used; directly from the mines, but after being converted into steel it gets its value and can be used for making many valuable machines, tools, etc.
Most of the materials from the farm, forest, mine and the sea are processed into various valuable items.
