Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

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.

Answer 2

Answer: D. The Kansas-Nebraska Act states that slaves were only allowed in the states below a certain point. And that the number of slave states and free states must remain equal.

"The Church of England is too full of Roman Catholic traditions and teachings, and thus cannot possibly be purified. The only way to practice pure religion, based on the Bible's sermons, is to break away from the Church. I am going to move to Plymouth Colony where I can practice my religion properly." Who would have most likely spoken the statement above? a Catholic

Answers

The correct option is D) a Separatist.

The group that would have most likely spoken the statement above is a separatist.

In the 16th and 17th century, the terms Separatist meant that people wanted to separate from the church of England to form other churches that were independent. The English Protestants of that time grew tired of the corruption they saw in the church of England. That is why on the passage we read that "the only way we can practice pure religion, based on the Bible's Sermons, is to break away from the church..."

The other options of the question were a) Catholic, b) Protestant, and c) Puritan.

The most likely spoken the statement above is the Separatist. The separatist believed that the original religious organization has been mixed with the interest of politic and power. so they thought the only way to stay pure is by separating themselves with the original churches
