To determine the correct answers to the questions, we can go through the options and analyze the information provided:
1. Compromise of 1850 intensifying the argument about slavery:
The correct answer is C. The equal division of slave and free territories displeased people on both sides. This is because the Compromise of 1850 allowed for the possibility of new states entering the Union as either free or slave states, and this upset both pro-slavery and anti-slavery factions.
2. Benefit from the expansion of New England's textile industry:
The correct answer is B. Lower demand for slaves. The expansion of the textile industry in New England led to increased demand for factory workers, which reduced the dependency on slave labor.
3. Invention benefiting American businessmen seeking to import goods from European companies:
The correct answer is B. Cyrus Field. Cyrus Field was responsible for the invention of the transatlantic telegraph cable, which greatly improved communication between America and Europe, benefiting businessmen seeking to import goods.
4. Factor contributing most to the U.S. acquisition of Florida in 1819:
The correct answer is C. Spain's loss of control over its South American territories. Spain's loss of control over its South American territories weakened its hold on Florida, making it easier for the United States to acquire the territory.
5. Explanation of Manifest Destiny:
The correct answer is B. A belief that the growth of the United States was a certainty. Manifest Destiny was the belief that it was America's destiny or fate to expand and occupy the entire North American continent.
6. Connection between the Dred Scott decision and John Brown's actions:
The correct answer is c. John Brown felt that the government would not support abolition and that violence was needed. The Dred Scott decision, which denied citizenship to African Americans and declared that Congress could not regulate slavery in the territories, led abolitionist John Brown to believe that peaceful means would not end slavery.
7. How Missouri's application for statehood threatened the future of slaves:
The correct answer is A. It could have given more power to the states in favor of slavery. Missouri's application for statehood as a slave state would have upset the balance between free and slave states in Congress, potentially tipping the scale in favor of slavery.
8. Effect of canals and railroads on the national economy during the 19th century:
The correct answer is A. These new forms of transportation boosted the economy by reducing the cost of moving goods across the country due to lower shipping costs. Canals and railroads improved transportation and lowered shipping costs, which stimulated economic growth by facilitating the movement of goods and connecting different regions of the country.
By analyzing the options and the information given, we can determine the correct answers to the questions.
