Question 1 • RMA FL-2100310-United States History Semester 1

Which statement describes one way in which Henry Ford's production practices differed from past production practices?

Answer
A
Ford used interchangeable parts in his assembly lines.
B
Ford hired only skilled workers for his assembly lines.
C
The workers stood still in Ford's assembly lines.
D
The workers practiced specialized skills in Ford's assembly lines.

Explanation

Ford’s moving assembly line brought the product to workers, so workers generally stayed at their stations instead of moving around to assemble it. Interchangeable parts had been used before Ford, and his system relied on simple, repetitive tasks rather than only skilled workers. The correct choice is “The workers stood still in Ford’s assembly lines.”
