Correct answer:  A. Allowing slavery's spread to areas that had been free for more than 30 years.

Explanation:

The Kansas-Nebraska Act enacted by Congress in 1854. It granted popular sovereignty to the people in the Kansas and Nebraska territories, letting them decide whether they'd allow slavery.  In essence, this made the Kansas-Nebraska act a repeal of the Missouri Compromise of 1820, which had said there would be no slavery north of latitude 36°30´ except for Missouri.

After the passage of the Kansas-Nebraska Act, pro-slavery and anti-slavery settlers rushed into Kansas to try to sway the outcome of the issue, and violence between the two sides occurred.  The term "bleeding Kansas" was used because of the bloodshed.  Kansas and Nebraska ended up as free states, but the Kansas-Nebraska act had allowed the possibility that slavery could become slave states.

In what way was the Quaker view of women unusual in the 1600s?
Minchanka [31]

The correct answer is option a. "Quakers considered women equal in spiritual matters, and women often led Quaker meetings." The way that Quakers (of The Religious Society of Friends) viewed women was very progressive for their time during the 1600s. During that time it was very unusual that women was considered spiritually equal to men for any religion, and for Quakers women were equal and had the right to talk and lead their meetings.
