B. pro-slavery and anti-slavery groups
Explanation: The Kansas–Nebraska Act implemented "popular sovereignty," letting settlers in those territories decide whether to allow slavery. That encouraged both pro-slavery and anti-slavery settlers to move in and try to influence the outcome (leading to "Bleeding Kansas").
