Respuesta :

I think that the question is in the context of the Kansas–Nebraska Act, from 1854.  (Popular sovereignty is a more general principle that says that the power is with the people - this would mean that options a, c and d would be true.).

But in the context of the Kansas–Nebraska Act the correct answer is that people could decide on slavery - the correct answer is A.
