Detailed Solution

Barber is a tertiary occupation.

Barber, as an occupation provides services which can be counted as necessities; the work does not produce any particular good or manufacture a good, not even add to a production process. It is based on acquiring skill and therefore using it to generate services. Hence it is a tertiary occupation.

Fishing involves extracting or collecting raw material (fish) directly from the natural resource. It, therefore, is a primary occupation since it provides the raw material for various activities like caviar extraction.

Weaving & construction are secondary occupations since they take up raw materials like yarn, fibres, and building materials like bricks, sand, and rocks, respectively, to manufacture and produce finished or intermediate goods like cloth, buildings, etc.
