Question

The statement that all corn grinding was done by women is true in describing Mexica agriculture. In Mexica society, the preparation of corn, which was a staple food, involved grinding it into flour, a task traditionally performed by women. This was a labor-intensive process often done with a mano and metate (handheld stone and grinding stone). The other statements are incorrect: the ox was not used by the Mexica as a draft animal, the swampy soil was made productive through the use of chinampas (floating gardens), farming was not solely done by slaves, and the Mexica did not use iron-tipped plows, as metalworking was not advanced to that level in pre-Columbian Mesoamerica.
