The second listed answer shown as option c ie "They were dirty, crowded, and unhealthy". We have to remember that many immigrants historically were fleeing their homelands because they were near starvation and desperately poor.

Further explanation

Most of the immigrant came to America because of some push factors in their country. These factors including political or religious oppression, crops failure, famine, and drought. Immigrants from Germany and Scotland came to America because of religious oppression, while Irish came to America mostly because of the potato famine. They came to America with the hope to find a better job and a better life.  


Because of their situation, the majority of the immigrants traveled via steerage. It is the cheapest class of travel. Steerage is the lower part of a steamship, it once used to hold hundreds of passengers.

The condition of this steerage can be described as inhumane, there was no ventilation, crowded, dump, lacked clean drinking water and sanitation, usually a shortage of food that passengers have to push and crowd to get some foods. It was reported that many immigrants died because of diseases like typhus and dysentery.
