To solve this worksheet, we need to understand the difference between a
producer and a
consumer.
* A
producer is someone who makes something or provides a service. They are doing the work.
* A
consumer is someone who buys something or uses a service. They are receiving the help or the item.
Let’s look at each picture one by one:
1.
First Picture (Doctor and Patient):
* The person in the white coat with the mask is the doctor. The doctor is providing medical care. So, the doctor is the
producer.
* The person sitting on the table is the patient. The patient is receiving care. So, the patient is the
consumer.
* *Left box (Patient):* Consumer
* *Right box (Doctor):* Producer
2.
Second Picture (Hairdresser and Customer):
* The person standing up is cutting hair. This is a service. So, the hairdresser is the
producer.
* The person sitting down is getting their hair cut. They are using the service. So, the customer is the
consumer.
* *Left box (Hairdresser):* Producer
* *Right box (Customer):* Consumer
3.
Third Picture (Dentist/Hygienist and Patient):
* The person standing up is working on the teeth. This is a service. So, the dental worker is the
producer.
* The person lying down is receiving the dental care. So, the patient is the
consumer.
* *Left box (Patient):* Consumer
* *Right box (Dental Worker):* Producer
4.
Fourth Picture (Cashier and Shopper):
* The person behind the counter is scanning items and taking money. This is a service. So, the cashier is the
producer.
* The person holding the bags is buying groceries. So, the shopper is the
consumer.
* *Left box (Shopper):* Consumer
* *Right box (Cashier):* Producer
