Question

Weight-losing and Weight-gaining industries.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Usually this is a case of some ubiquitous raw material, such as water, being incorporated into the product. This is called the weight-gaining industry. This type of industry tends to build up near market or raw material source, and are called foot-loose industry.

Weight-losing industries are industries where the raw materials are relatively bulky, but the resulting product is relatively smaller.

Weight-gaining industries are industries where the raw materials are relatively small, but these are converted to produce a bulky finished product.
