Final answer:

Russian serfs were legally bound to work the land owned by nobles and were regarded as their property. They lived in single-room cabins and made up a large portion of the Russian population. Serfs had limited rights and were unable to leave the land legally to find better employment.

Step-by-step explanation:

Russian serfs, also known as unfree peasants, were legally bound to work the land owned by nobles. They did not own the land themselves.

They lived in single-room cabins made of logs or clay.

More than three-quarters of the population in Russia consisted of serfs.

They were regarded as the property of the noble whose fields they worked.

Their taxes were high, and their living conditions had changed little since the days of Ivan the Terrible. They had a few rights as **slaves**, and they were legally unable to leave the land to find better work in the city.
