To make bubble gum, you need to start with gum base. The base is traditionally made up of tree resin. Recently it has been made by synthetic rubber and plastic. If you use tree resin, you start by extracting it from trees. Rubber is made from latex, so if you use rubber you would extract it from certain plants. ]]> 2021-03-03 18:55:41 UTC https://padlet.com/s622296/qhj2dm143ey9y79p/wish/1265507462 s622296 https://padlet.com/s622296/qhj2dm143ey9y79p/wish/1265802490 Secondary economic activity is using the raw materials to manufacture the item. To make bubble gum, the gum base is put a mixer and mixed with color and flavoring. As it is mixing glucose syrup and sweetener is added. Then, they add a powdered sweetener and blend the ingredients. After it is mixed, it is transferred into a machine called the pre-extruder, then a extruder. Lastly, the gum is cut and put into wrappers and distributed into tubs. ]]> 2021-03-03 19:53:55 UTC https://padlet.com/s622296/qhj2dm143ey9y79p/wish/1265802490 s622296 https://padlet.com/s622296/qhj2dm143ey9y79p/wish/1265888054 Quaternary economic activity is acquiring, processing, and teaching information. Walter Diemer invented bubble gum in 1928. Throughout the years bubble gum has changed so much from the production, coloring, and flavor. Before making these changes companies researched and experimented with different recipes. ]]> 2021-03-03 20:13:28 UTC https://padlet.com/s622296/qhj2dm143ey9y79p/wish/1265888054 s622296 https://padlet.com/s622296/qhj2dm143ey9y79p/wish/1265942752 Tertiary economic activity is based on services.

It is typically sold at grocery stores and gas stations. ]]> 2021-03-03 20:26:24 UTC https://padlet.com/s622296/qhj2dm143ey9y79p/wish/1265942752 s622296 https://padlet.com/s622296/qhj2dm143ey9y79p/wish/1274393559 The Pará rubber tree originated in Brazil, but has recently been grown in Asia. Over 90% of latex is produced in Asia, because it has plenty natural resources and good production infrastructure. Thailand also has the specific conditions that the rubber tree needs to grow]]> 2021-03-05 16:30:13 UTC https://padlet.com/s622296/qhj2dm143ey9y79p/wish/1274393559 s622296 https://padlet.com/s622296/qhj2dm143ey9y79p/wish/1275638616 Thailand is a developed country, because it is in stage 5. The population is shrinking. Developed countries tend to have lower birth rates because there are better job and education opportunities for women. They are also more expensive. Developed countries economic activity are mainly service and quaternary. However, Thailand is mainly farmland, so agriculture is a big activity. ]]> 2021-03-05 21:20:34 UTC https://padlet.com/s622296/qhj2dm143ey9y79p/wish/1275638616 s622296 https://padlet.com/s622296/qhj2dm143ey9y79p/wish/1275866177 Most gum is manufactured in the United states. The US is one of the leading manufacturers in the world, because it has a very large market. Many companies transport raw materials from other countries to the US, so that after products are made, they will be closer to markets. This helps with transportation costs, especially when the finished product is heavy. ]]> 2021-03-05 23:25:35 UTC https://padlet.com/s622296/qhj2dm143ey9y79p/wish/1275866177 s622296 https://padlet.com/s622296/qhj2dm143ey9y79p/wish/1275991170 Iran consumes the most gum in the world.

It is in stage 4, so the population growth is slow or zero. It is not increasing, because there are a lot of opportunities for women. Developed countries typically have mainly service and quaternary jobs, but industry is still big. Since the US is a big manufacturer, industry is big. ]]> 2021-03-06 01:18:10 UTC https://padlet.com/s622296/qhj2dm143ey9y79p/wish/1275998777 s622296 https://padlet.com/s622296/qhj2dm143ey9y79p/wish/1277487242 Most bubble gum is manufactured in the US, so there are a lot of American bubble gum companies.
