Answer:
Slavery was the main issue dividing the main parties.
Explanation:
The election of 1856 in which James Buchanan won as a Democratic presidential candidate, against the Know-Nothings party and the Republican party, shows that "Slavery was the main issue dividing the main parties."
This is evident in the fact that the Democratic party was perceived by the public as a party in support of slavery.
Hence, some Democrats and Whigs party members fall out to form new parties, the Know-Nothing Party, and the Republican party.
The Know-Nothings party has the ideal of anti-immigration, while the Republicans have the anti-slavery ideals.

Answer:
The answer to your question would be sentence D.
Explanation:
The best way to combine the independent and dependent clause to make it a complex sentence is as shown in sentence D. A complex sentence is a sentence that contains an independent clause and one or more dependent clauses. An independent clause, as opposed to a dependent one, can stand alone as a sentence as it represents a complete thought (see 1). (1) is not an independent clause as it fails to stand alone as a complete sentence, it depends on the main (dependent) clause to complete its meaning (see 2).
