D. They were provided school lessons during breaks.

Answer 1

Child laborers were more likely to be injured, earned less than adults, and were not protected from dangerous work.

Step-by-step explanation:

Child laborers were much more likely than adults to be injured due to the dangerous nature of the work they were forced to do. Unlike adults, they were not protected by laws to ensure their safety.

Child laborers earned significantly less money than adults for their work. They were often exploited by employers who paid them lower wages compared to adult workers.

Unfortunately, child laborers were not prevented from doing dangerous work. They were easily exploitable and made to work in hazardous conditions.
