All the options are correct.

As we know before Missouri Compromise of 1820, there were 11 free states and 11 save states and so there was a balance of power between North and South. The admission of Missouri as a slave state would result the imbalance. So we see Henry Clay, a congressman came with Missouri Compromise which provided for admission of Missouri as a slave state along with Maine as a free state in order to maintain the balance of power. It also prohibited slavery in the north of 36*30 parallel, excluding Missouri. So ultimately resolved the heated issue of the time in the Senate over slave states and free states. As it was a controversial act, it was later declared unconstitutional and was repealed by Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854.

Henry Clay's Missouri compromise was significant because: It kept the balance of slave states and free states equal. Clay was also known as "<u>Great pacificator</u>" for his work on developing components on the Missouri compromise.

The Missouri compromise was a measure that passed by the U.S congress and allowed the <u>admission of Missouri</u> as the 24th state and <u>Main</u> as a free state in 1821.  

Although the compromise measures appeared to settle the slavery issue, the sectional conflict grew until it became a civil war when <u>the compromise was repealed by the Kansas Nebraska Act in 1824</u>. For this, it is said that this event led to the <u>American Civil War</u>.

How did the Great Compromise settle the debate over the Virginia Plan and the New Jersey Plan?
ExtremeBDS [4]

The Great Compromise settled the debate over the Virginia and New Jersey Plans by ensuring that <em>B. Each state would have the same number ...</em>

 

  • The Great Compromise provided for bicameral Congress.  The House of Representatives is where states are represented based on population.  The Senate is where representation is based on the equality of states (2 members from each state).

 

  • The Great Compromise was not reached based on the same number of senators and representatives without regard to state population. It was not reached based on equal number of representatives while the number of senators is based on state population

  • The Great Compromise was not reached based on having the number of senators and representatives determined on state population.

 

Thus, the Great Compromise reached in Connecticut allayed the fears of states with smaller populations by recognizing equal representation in the Senate.  It also gave states with larger populations higher representatives in the House of Representatives.
