The correct answer is option B. "was settled by the Missouri Compromise". When Missouri applied for statehood it raised controversy because the government was not sure if slavery should move westward. However, this controversy ended when the Missouri Compromise was passed in 1820, admitting Missouri as a slave state and Maine as a free state.
