The three-sector model in economics divides economies into three sectors of activity: extraction of raw materials (primary), manufacturing (secondary), and service industries which exist to facilitate the transport, distribution and sale of goods produced in the secondary sector (tertiary).[1] The model was developed by Allan Fisher,[2][3][4] Colin Clark,[5] and Jean Fourastié[6] in the first half of the 20th century, and is a representation of an industrial economy. It has been criticised as inappropriate as a representation of the economy in the 21st century.[7]

According to the three-sector model, the main focus of an economy's activity shifts from the primary, through the secondary and finally to the tertiary sector. Countries with a low per capita income are in an early state of development; the main part of their national income is achieved through production in the primary sector. Countries in a more advanced state of development, with a medium national income, generate their income mostly in the secondary sector. In highly developed countries with a high income, the tertiary sector dominates the total output of the economy.

The rise of the post-industrial economy in which an increasing proportion of economic activity is not directly related to physical goods has led some economists to expand the model by adding a fourth quaternary or fifth quinary sectors, while others have ceased to use the model.

How are hills different from mountains

When you ride a bicycle or run as fast as you can, your muscles begin to feel weak and they are sore afterwards. This is a resul

REY [17]

Answer: Anaerobic respiration or Fermentation

Explanation:

When we are engaged in intense physical activity such as running or riding a bike, the muscles need energy to function and they get this from aerobic respiration.

They will quickly run out of the oxygen required to sufficiently use aerobic respiration however and will turn to anaerobic respiration which can produce energy in the absence of oxygen.

As the body uses anaerobic respiration however, lactic acid is produced and builds up in the muscles. It is this lactic acid that leads to the muscles feeling sore.
