Answer 2

Answer:

Option: B) the ruling in the "Dred Scott" case.

Explanation:

The Compromise of 1850 reduced the political dispute between slave and free states (the South and the north). The Compromise of 1850 tried to settle conflicts over slavery as new territories joined America after the Mexican-American War. It admitted California as a free with no slavery, left New Mexico and Utah to decide themselves. It made it easier for slave owners to reclaim runways following the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850.
