The statement that is true about slavery in the Roman Empire is:

On average, enslaved Romans died young.

While there were some legal protections and opportunities for enslaved people to earn their freedom, the overall conditions of slavery were harsh, and many enslaved individuals did not survive to old age due to the demanding work, abuse, and poor living conditions they often faced.

The other statements are inaccurate regarding the general practices of slavery in Rome.
