  3. C
    Direct production and indirect production
  4. D
    Trade service and commercial service

Answer

Commercial service and direct service
The service provided by the security firm to the commercial bank facilitates business operations and risk mitigation, making it a commercial service (auxiliary to trade). In contrast, the personal bodyguard provides protection directly to an individual and his family for personal satisfaction, which is classified as a direct service occupation.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Analyze the service provided by the security firm to the bank vault.
It facilitates commercial banking operations, which is an auxiliary to trade.
Services that assist business enterprises and trade operations are classified as commercial occupations.
2
Analyze the service provided by the personal bodyguard to the managing director's family.
It provides personal protection directly to private individuals for personal satisfaction.
Services rendered directly to private consumers without mediating trade operations are direct service occupations.
3
Pair the classifications in the requested order.
Security firm = Commercial service; Personal bodyguard = Direct service.
The stem asks for the respective classification of the two services in order.
