The correct answer is D) Slaughterhouse conditions were even worse than Sinclair had reported.

Upton Sinclair wrote about the horrible conditions of the meat packing industry in his famous fictional novel <em>The Jungle</em>. Even though this book followed the story of a made up family, Sinclair based his experiences on his actual life when he worked in Chicago's meatpacking district. To see if these conditions were actually happening, the government sent inspectors into meat packing plants all over the US. After seeing the disgusting conditions, president Teddy Roosevelt passed the Meat Inspection Act of 1906. This would help to ensure safe and healthy working conditions.

Answer: Slaughterhouse conditions were even worse than Sinclair had reported.

In <em>The Jungle</em>, Upton Sinclair presented a story that described the practices of the meatpacking industry in Chicago. The purpose of Sinclair's book was to show people the abuses and mistreatment suffered by immigrants who arrived to America looking for a better life. However, this was not the part that resonated with most readers. Instead, more attention was given to the conditions in which meat was processed. People were disgusted and outraged by Sinclair's descriptions. The book motivated the passing of legislation in order to improve the sanitary conditions of the meatpacking industry.
