Answer:
When the Aztecs sacrificed people to Huitzilopochtli (the god with warlike aspects) the victim would be placed on a sacrificial stone. The priest would then cut through the abdomen with an obsidian or flint blade. The heart would be torn out still beating and held towards the sky in honor to the Sun-God. The body would then be pushed down the pyramid where the Coyolxauhqui stone could be found. The Coyolxauhqui Stone recreates the story of Coyolxauhqui, Huitzilopochtli's sister who was dismembered at the base of a mountain, just as the sacrificial victims were. The body would be carried away and either cremated or given to the warrior responsible for the capture of the victim. He would either cut the body in pieces and send them to important people as an offering, or use the pieces for ritual cannibalism. The warrior would thus ascend one step in the hierarchy of the Aztec social classes, a system that rewarded successful warriors.

Answer:
<u>The admission of Kansas as a free state</u>
Explanation:
The Compromise of 1850 consisted of four major provisions that aimed at defusing political confrontations that have originated on the issue of whether to allow slavery in the U.S.'s new western land that Americans had acquired in the Mexican-American War.
Under the Compromise, a new Fugitive Slave Act was enacted to require citizens of free states to assist in capturing fugitive slaves or to face fines or imprisonment, California was admitted as a free state, Congress gave "popular sovereignty" to the territories of New Mexico and Utah to decide whether to allow slavery and slave trade was banned in Washington, DC, although slavery continued to be legal there.
However, Kansas was nowhere mentioned in the Compromise. It wasn't until the Kansas-Nebraska Act that this territory was organized under the principle of popular sovereignty that allowed white residents to decide whether to allow slavery.
