Explanation: The question was "Which of the following does not describe the slave trade as it existed in Africa by 1700?". In reality more than one-third of slaves died before reaching the coast because of thirst, disease, or exhaustion, not to mention the countless beatings the slaves took and was ultimately treated like trash. Reading "Slaves were treated humanely on the sea journey to the Americas to make sure the maximum number survived." when you know for a fact that slavery was NOT like that whatsoever in the 1700s
