The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Workers in Packingtown had many illnesses and affliction. They worked in severe unhealthy conditions that made it easier to spread diseases. In the warehouses, they packed meat that was in bad sanitary conditions, there were even rats in the room. The rotten and contaminated meat that they handle in Packington made workers get sick with digestive infections due to the many bacteria in the area.

It was Uptown Sinclair who wrote the book "The Jungle" to expose the unhealthy and critical conditions in which people labored in the meatpacking industry. As a result of the extreme cases he exposed in the book, the federal government created legislation to change this issue.

1. Territory that goes from the north of Alaska and Canada to Tierra del Fuego
nordsb [41]

Answer:

The Pan-American Highway (French: (Auto)route panaméricaine/transaméricaine; Portuguese: Rodovia/Auto-estrada Pan-americana; Spanish: Autopista/Carretera/Ruta Panamericana) is a network of roads stretching across the American continents and measuring about 30,000 kilometres (19,000 mi)[1] in total length. Except for a rainforest break of approximately 106 km (70 mi) across the border between southeast Panama and northwest Colombia, called the Darién Gap, the roads link almost all of the Pacific coastal countries of the Americas in a connected highway system. According to Guinness World Records, the Pan-American Highway is the world's longest "motorable road". However, because of the Darién Gap, it is not possible to cross between South America and Central America with conventional highway vehicles. Without an all-terrain vehicle, the only way to safely navigate this terrestrial stretch is by sea.
