Answer:d

Step-by-step explanation:

One consequence of the U.S. annexation of Texas in 1845 was increased tension with Mexico that eventually led to war. Although the Republic of Texas had declared its independence from Mexico in 1836, the Mexican government still considered Texas to be a part of that country. For this reason, Mexico saw the annexation as the U.S. stealing their territory.
