Which of the following statements about economic sectors are true? I. A subsistence farmer and a miner both are employed in the primary economic sector. II. A person who works in a bread factory is employed in the primary economic sector. III. A construction worker is employed in the secondary economic sector. IV. An airline pilot is employed in the tertiary economic sector.

Answer
A
I., II., III., and IV.
B
I. and III. only
C
I., III., and IV.
D
I., II., and III.

Explanation

The primary sector involves obtaining raw materials, so subsistence farming and mining are both primary-sector activities (I is true). Making bread in a factory is manufacturing, which belongs to the secondary sector, so II is false. Construction is also part of the secondary sector, while flying passengers is a service in the tertiary sector (III and IV are true). Therefore, the correct choice is C: I, III, and IV.
