    What does the question say after the word 'of'?

    Either, geography questions are generally very vague

    ^^ ya agree with the guy above me,

    but basically talk about any secondary activities, just because a region is poor doesn't mean it doesn't have them, you should of learned loads of secondary activities about the west of Ireland and the Mezzo.

    Are you in 5th year?

    Again, for development, do you just waffle on about how secondary activities came about in that place? E.g. grants, infrastructure, resources(labour force, etc)? Again, with me its the question that catches me out.
    For primary, again, would you talk about climate, soils, grants?
    If so its really a process of learning off an answer with 12 SRPs on Primary, Secondary, and tertiary for an Irish, European and Non EU region
