Answer 1

Here are the correct matches and short explanations:

- Missouri Compromise — Preserved the balance between free and slave states by admitting Missouri as a slave state and Maine as a free state and by banning slavery north of 36°30' in the Louisiana Purchase (except Missouri).
- Compromise of 1850 — Included a stricter Fugitive Slave Law (and also admitted California as a free state and left slavery in some territories to popular sovereignty).
- Kansas‑Nebraska Act — Led to Bleeding Kansas (it repealed the Missouri Compromise line and used popular sovereignty, which produced violent conflict in Kansas).
