Which term is used to describe the work done by the working class, especially manual labor?

• A. Capital
• B. Enterprise
• C. Labour
• D. Management

Answer: (C)

Labour is the term for human work used in making goods and delivering services, especially the physical effort involved in manual tasks. It’s one of the main factors of production, alongside land (natural resources), capital (machinery, tools, and money), and enterprise (the drive and risk-taking to organize production). In farming, labour means the people doing tasks like planting, weeding, harvesting, and caring for animals. The other terms describe different inputs: capital is the tools and money used, enterprise is the initiative to start and run a business, and management is the coordination of people and resources. So the work done by the working class, particularly manual labor, is labour.
