The multiple nuclei model suggests that there are multiple centres of growth and development within a city, rather than a single central business district. In this scenario, the three basic centres of development in the midsize city exemplify the multiple nuclei model, with each nucleus representing a different industry or sector (light industry, agriculture-related, service industry). The sector model focuses on a city's growth around a single dominant economic activity, while the concentric zone model and social area analysis both emphasize the spatial distribution of different socioeconomic groups within a city, which is not the focus of this scenario.
