The conditions were not pleasant at all. Slaves were housed in dungeons and because they didn’t know where they were going moral was very low. They were treated terribly and was beaten and branded and survival rates were very low. All together, it was a nightmarish experience.

I am not exactly sure what your teacher is looking for but I will do my best.

Let me know if there is anything else I can help with!

Slave ships were very unhighgenic. The people on them were not given enough supplies and were given very little food if any at all. They mostly had to stay in there very small plank beds. The rooms were very cramped. Because of the bad conditions, there were very high mortality rates.
