Question

Although slaves had no choice but to work, slave labor was often not efficient. Which statement explains this best?

Answer 1

Slaves did not have the language skills, strength, or endurance of free workers, so they could not perform their duties as well.

Slaves were rarely rewarded for doing good work. Their only incentive was to escape punishment, so they had no reason to do their best.

Slaves were paid, but their wages were less than those of their free counterparts. This led slave laborers to do work that was of lower quality.

Slaves were not as educated as Southern whites. They did not have the technical training that white farmers did, and they often could not read.
