Economic activities are typically classified into different sectors. The primary sector involves the extraction and production of raw materials from the earth, such as agriculture, forestry, fishing, and mining. The tertiary sector (or service sector) involves providing services to consumers and businesses, such as trade, transport, banking, healthcare, education, etc. Agriculture falls under the primary sector, and services fall under the tertiary sector.

Understanding the classification of economic activities into primary, secondary, tertiary, and sometimes quaternary/quinary sectors is fundamental to economics.

The secondary sector involves the processing of raw materials into finished goods (manufacturing, construction). The quaternary sector involves knowledge-based services (research and development, information technology). The quinary sector includes high-level decision-making (government, top executives).
