Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

(A) Lack of Enjoyment in Work: Alienation commonly results in individuals perceiving their labor as devoid of meaning and finding no satisfaction in it.
(B) Repetitive and Draining Work: Alienation contributes to work becoming monotonous, repetitive, and physically or mentally taxing, fostering significant frustration.
(C) Disconnection from Work's Outcome: In alienated environments, individuals lack a sense of connection to the final product of their labor, often due to task fragmentation and collective execution. This disconnect is a defining characteristic absent in alienated labor.
(D) Technological Displacement Anxiety: In contexts where technology supplants human tasks, the anxiety surrounding potential replacement is a significant contributor to alienation, forming a core element of this phenomenon.
