Answer 1

The correct option is this: ACTIVITIES PRODUCING INTANGIBLE AND TANGILBLE PRODUCTS SUCH AS ENTERTAINMENT, TRANSPORTATION AND EDUCATION.
When we are talking about production, the product produce may be goods or services. Goods refers to tangible products such as soaps, chemicals, cars, books, etc, which are produced using the necessary raw materials. These products are visible and can be handle with our hands.
Services refers to intangible and tangible products, which most time can not be handle physically with our hands. Example of service production is education and legal services.
