Final answer:
Enslaved people in South Carolina worked in rice fields, which was described as very challenging. Enslaved people in the Chesapeake primarily worked in tobacco fields on plantations.
Step-by-step explanation:
Enslaved people in South Carolina and enslaved people in the Chesapeake had different experiences of work.
In South Carolina, many enslaved people were immediately put to work in rice fields, which was described as extremely difficult and unhealthy.
On the other hand, in the Chesapeake, most enslaved people worked in tobacco fields on plantations. They also lived in quarters away from the main plantation and had some limited autonomy in their work.
