Solution
The economy of Brazil is mainly dependent on the tertiary activities there.
Explanation:
Brazil has a well-developed tertiary sector, which includes services like banking, tourism, and trade, contributing the most to its GDP. Although agriculture and industry are also significant, the service sector plays a dominant role in economic growth and employment. Hence, tertiary activities are the backbone of Brazil’s economy.
