Q1
Robot picks ripe strawberries in a field → Agriculture: the robot does a farming task such as harvesting crops
Q2
Robot welds car doors on a production line → Industry: the robot does a manufacturing task in a factory
Q3
A robot that helps a surgeon hold tools steady during an operation is used in medicine → role = "medicine" // surgical assistant robot
Q4
A task can fit more than one area: a robot that carries parts around a factory is industry, but a self-driving delivery van is transport → task = "move goods" // industry OR transport
Q5
Robot welds car doors -> role = "agriculture" → Welding car doors is a factory manufacturing task, so the role is industry, not agriculture.
Q6
Robot helps a surgeon -> role = "entertainment" → Helping a surgeon is a health care task, so the role is medicine, not entertainment.
