Answer 1

The division of labor refers to the breaking down of a production process and assigning individual laborers to individual tasks. Specialization of labor occurs when an individual laborer concentrates their productive activity on a particular task.

For example: one step in the manufacture of an automobile is the installation of the wiper blades. One laborer is assigned to this task ... division of labor.

Joan, a Detroit resident has decided to devote her life to the efficient installation of wiper blades ... specialization of labor.

Answer 2

Introduced at the beginning of the industrial revolution these were the foundations of mass production and assembly line manufacturing methods. Prior to this, a manufactured article was made from start to finish by the same person. By dividing the steps of manufacture into separate specialized functions, multiple workers could produce the product in less time, and the workers required less skill. This opened up the labor force and lowered the cost of manufacture because the simpler specialized task could be done by lower-paid workers, as opposed to skilled craftsmen.
