I believe Human resource management is also a primary activity as it plays a crucial role in supporting the operations and overall success of the organization.

Ah, the classic Porter's Value Chain! I'm betting C, Operations, is definitely a primary activity. But I'm torn between A, Inbound logistics, and F, Procurement. Hmm, this is a tricky one.
