In economics, to simplify, labor and capital. Light industry is labor intensive industry while heavy industry is focused on capital investment.

It's about opportunity costs - resources used to develop capital (steel mills, heavy machinery, etc.) isn't available to manufacture consumer goods, and vice versa.
Simple answer: the Hecksler-Ohlin model of trade describes that countries, as they specialise in goods in which they possess comparative advantage, devote labour/capital to that good. In this case, other goods are pushed out of the market as the dominant input (labour or capital) in the advantaged good rises in price. I.e.) China specialises in manufacturing; manfacturing is labour-intensive. Labour and capital shift to manufacturing. The price of the two rises, pushing other goods out of the market, especially capital-heavy goods (since labour is needed in manufacturing). In general, many countries specialise in a good because they possess plentiful inputs needed for that good. I.e.) The U.S. has a lot of capital. Therefore, capital has more competition and is cheaper to access. Capital-intensive goods are cheaper to produce, and so more capital-intensive goods are produced with higher profit-margins.
Capital-intensive products, such as cars and trucks, heavy construction equipment, and industrial machinery, are produced by nations that have a highly developed industrial base. Japan is an example
heavy industry is manufactured goods such as machinery,mining equipment, and steel
Israel's industry was originally designed to cater to a domestic market. It was to supply such basic commodities as soap, vegetable oil and margarine, bread, ice, printing, and electricity. It used raw materials available locally to produce goods as canned vegetables and fruit, cement, glass, and bricks. In order to save foreign exchange, imports of processed goods were curtailed, giving the local industry the opportunity of adding local value to the manufacturing process of products imported from abroad. Although most of Israel's industrial production is still for domestic consumption, the country's economy is far more export-oriented. Higher valued processed goods (excluding diamonds), especially electronics and high-tech related, currently constitute 90 percent of total exports. There has been a heavy expansion in export-oriented industries as a result of government tax and investment incentive schemes. Read more below: Israel Industry, Information about Industry in Israel
