Answer:

Correct answer is 4. Popular sovereignty.

Step-by-step explanation:

First option is not correct as it refers to an act according to which it was prohibited to help slaves, and it addressed their arrest.

Second option is not correct as it refers to a platform that Georgia made on Compromise of 1850.

Third option is not correct as refers to abolishment of slavery in some new states that were admitted to United States.

Fourth option is correct because it refers to possibility of people to decide whether they want to preserve or abolish slavery.
