To find the answer to question 5, we need to evaluate the options. The Missouri Compromise was an agreement reached in 1820 that allowed Missouri to enter the Union as a slave state while also admitting Maine as a free state in order to maintain a balance between the number of free and slave states. However, it also established a line at 36°30'N latitude, with slavery being prohibited in the territories north of that line.
Option A suggests that members of Congress wanted to end the question of slavery, but this is not directly related to why the Missouri Compromise needed to be replaced. Option B states that the U.S. wanted to sell the territory gained after the Mexican-American War to build railroads, but this is not directly linked to the replacement of the Missouri Compromise. Option C suggests that Congress decided that the people should be able to decide whether the newly acquired territories should allow slavery, which is accurate. This reflects the key aspect of the Compromise of 1850, which allowed popular sovereignty to determine the issue of slavery in the newly acquired territory.
Therefore, the best answer to question 5 is option C.
To find the answer to question 7, we need to evaluate the options. Western expansion in the United States had a significant impact on Native American tribes.
Option A suggests that railroad expansion allowed Native American hunters to sell bison meat and hides at higher rates than before. While railroads did facilitate the transportation of goods, this option does not directly address the impact on Native American tribes.
Option B states that railroad expansion brought U.S. settlers in contact with bison, drastically reducing the population of this food source. This option accurately represents the consequences of railroad expansion, as settlers began hunting bison for various purposes, leading to a decline in their population and affecting the availability of this resource for Native American tribes.
Option C suggests that westward migration of U.S. settlers increased the number of farms and caused a supplementation of bison meat with grains. This option does not directly address the impact on Native American tribes and their way of life.
Option D states that westward migration of slave-owning settlers diminished the demand for bison as a beast of burden, causing the bison population to increase. While the migration of settlers did affect different aspects of Native American life, this option specifically focuses on the demand for bison as a beast of burden, which is not directly related to the impact on Native American tribes.
Therefore, the best answer to question 7 is option B.
5.) C - yes
6.) C - no
No.
