Answer :

Answer:

The last option.

Explanation:

I did the quiz and got it correct.

An effect of the new territory acquired by the US after the Mexican-American War was that states disagreed about whether slavery should be allowed in Mexican territory.

  • After the Mexican-American War, America gained one-third of its territory of Mexico.
  • A controversy emerged whether slavery should be allowed in the new territories.
  • The free states wanted to add it to the North, free of slavery.
  • The slave states encouraged slavery and considered it legal as they required in cotton plantations.

Thus option D is the correct answer.
