Considering the available options, the statement that best describes political parties during the period leading up to the Civil War is "The Whig Party split over the issue of slavery, and antislavery factions of many parties merged to form the Republican Party."

In 1854, The Whig Party split after the ratification of the Kansas–Nebraska Act.

This Act caused division between the majority of Northern Whigs and the majority of the Southern Whigs party.

The former faction formed most of the anti-slavery Republican Party, while the latter helped create the nativist American Party or Constitutional Union Party.

The American Civil War occurred between 1861 to 1865.

Hence, in this case, it is concluded that the correct answer is option C. "The Whig Party split over the issue of slavery, and antislavery factions of many parties merged to form the Republican Party."
