Answer: D.) It made it possible for slavery to be allowed in more areas.

Step-by-step explanation: The Kansas-Nebraska Act allowed the states to choose whether or not they want to become free or slave states. After the Missouri Compromise was repealed by the Kansas-Nebraska act, Northerners were angry that the states were allowed popular sovereignty.
