miguel, you cannot learn anything without doing the reading for yourself. If we gave you the answers, you still wouldn't know anything at all.

To answer these questions, we can provide explanations step by step.

1. The Wilmot Proviso called for popular sovereignty on the slave question in the territories won from Mexico.
- To determine if this statement is true or false, we need to understand the purpose of the Wilmot Proviso. The Wilmot Proviso was a proposed amendment to a spending bill in 1846 that aimed to ban slavery in any territory acquired from Mexico as a result of the Mexican-American War. However, the proviso was never passed into law, so the statement is false.

2. The Wilmot Proviso ____________________.
- The options provided are:
a. Passed the House and Senate.
b. Enraged the South.
c. Brought the North and South together on the issue of slavery.
d. Became law in 1850.
- To determine the correct option, we need to know the outcome of the Wilmot Proviso. As mentioned earlier, the Wilmot Proviso was never passed into law, so option a is not correct. The proviso did, however, anger the South, so option b is correct.

3. In the 1848 election, the Whigs opposed the extension of slavery.
- To determine if this statement is true or false, we need to understand the stance of the Whig party on slavery during that time. The Whig party was divided on the issue of slavery, and while some Whig members did oppose the extension of slavery, the party as a whole did not take an official stance on the matter. Therefore, the statement is false.

4. General Zachary Taylor, the Whig party candidate in the 1848 election was all of the following except ____________________.
- The options provided are:
a. A slaveowner.
b. A Mexican War hero.
c. From the Lower South.
d. Related to Henry Clay.
- To determine the correct option, we need to know the background of General Zachary Taylor. Taylor was a slaveowner, a Mexican War hero, and he was related to Henry Clay. However, he was not from the Lower South, so option c is the correct answer.

5. In the election of 1848, the __________ party’s presidential nominee was Martin Van Buren.
- To fill in the blank, we need to know the party that nominated Martin Van Buren as its presidential nominee in the election of 1848. The party that nominated Martin Van Buren was the Free Soil Party.

6. The winner of the 1848 presidential election was ____________________.
- To determine the correct answer, we need to know who won the presidential election in 1848. The winner of the 1848 presidential election was Zachary Taylor.
