I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is the last option. All of the following were results of the California Gold Rush except the  issue of bringing new territories into the Union arose. The California Gold Rush began on January 24, 1848, when goldwas found by James W. Marshall at Sutter's Mill in Coloma, California. Hope this helps.
