The correct answer is B. The Kansas-Nebraska Act did all of the following things except resolve the Texas-New Mexico boundary dispute.  

Explanation:

The Kansas-Nebraska Act was the law promulgated in the United States, in 1854, for the creation of the states of Nebraska and Kansas, in territories of the old French Louisiana. It was driven by the senator and leader of the Democratic Party Stephen Arnold Douglas, of Illinois.

The situation of the two states north of the line defined in the Missouri compromise meant that both should be states in which slavery was not allowed. However, the contiguity of Kansas with the slave state of Missouri and the search by Senator Douglas for southern support for a railroad in his state caused the law to include the provision that, in order to decide on the issue of slaves, citizens could exercise "popular sovereignty" and, therefore, be able to decide whether to be a slave state or not.

The discussion of the law and subsequent voting provoked strong conflicts between anti-slavery and pro-slavery, especially in Kansas, and the disappearance of the Whig party and the creation of the Republican party.

The Kansas-Nebraska Act effectively nullified the Missouri Compromise of 1820, and although it failed to make Kansas a state with legal slave labor, it further opened up the divisions of the nation that led to the Civil War in 1861.

Kansas was admitted as a free state on January 29, 1861, but Nebraska was not admitted as a state until after the Civil War, in 1867.
