Answer 1

The emergence of the new two-party political system in the United States during the 1830s and 1840s fulfilled the wishes of the founding fathers and became an important part of the nation's checks and balances. Therefore, the correct option is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The subject of this question is History. The question is referring to the emergence of the new two-party political system in the United States during the 1830s and 1840s.

The emergence of the second party system composed of the Democrats and the Whigs did not significantly reduce sectional political divisions in the country (option a). It also was not seen as a weakening of democracy at the time (option b). However, it did become an important part of the nation's checks and balances (option c) and fulfilled the wishes of the founding fathers to some extent.
