a) What changes are shown in the pie-charts? In the first pie-chart (UK employment in 1920) the sector most important is the secondary, the next is the tertiary and the last is the primary sector. In the second pie-chart (UK employment in 1995) the most important is the tertiary sector and the least important is the primary sector.b) Give reasons for the changes shown in the two pie-charts? In the first pie-chart the sector with biggest influence was the secondary because the industries have grand importance and the 45% work in this sector. Now the most important sector is the tertiary because it includes more activities than the sector tertiary sector in 1920 and it´s different. Example: the sanitation is better than the sanitation the 1920.
