Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Usage and activation of a resource are not the same. Usage refers to how a resource is employed to contribute to the production process, while activation is about how a resource is made ready or operational. A resource can be activated (i.e., running or turned on) without being effectively used (contributing to productive output).
