Best Answer

Most Jews were sent to extermination camps (such as Treblinka II and Sobibor) that were simply killing centres. Most of the newly arrived prisoners were gassed or shot within a few hours of arrival. Their corpses (dead bodies) were cremated (burnt) or buried in large mass graves.

Some Jews were killed in the revolting ways described below, but they were a minority. Given the large number of victims, the Nazis usually wanted to kill quickly so that they could 'deal with' the next trainload of victims.

Auschwitz and Majdanek were somewhat different as they were concentration camps and killing centres. On arrival at Auschwitz, in particular, prisoners who looked physically fit on arrival were selected for slave labour and then often worked to death on grossly inadequate rations.
