B
Both of your answers are correct.
Correct, John C. Calhoun is often credited with developing the doctrine of nullification.
For the second question, the correct answer is C. The Tariff of Abominations, passed in 1828, was a controversial tariff that imposed high import taxes on imported goods, particularly manufactured goods. This law was applauded in the North because it protected and promoted their growing industries, while it was despised in the South because it harmed their agricultural economy and made goods more expensive for them to purchase.
The passage of the Tariff of Abominations eventually led to the Nullification Crisis. In response to the tariff, South Carolina declared the Tariff of 1832 (noted as the Nullification Act of 1832 in your question) null and void within the state's borders. This act claimed that individual states had the right to nullify or reject federal laws that they considered unconstitutional. The Nullification Crisis highlighted the conflict between states' rights and federal power, and it was only resolved through compromise.
For the third question, the correct answer is B. The Nullification Act of 1832 declared that individual states did not have to obey federal laws that they deemed unconstitutional. This act was a reflection of the doctrine of nullification, which John C. Calhoun was a strong advocate for. By declaring that states could nullify federal laws, it challenged the authority and power of the federal government.
