According to the Dred Scott decision, the ______ was abolished since the _____th amendment protected the right to property.

A- Kansas Nebraska act; 6th

B- Missouri Compromise; 5th

C- Kansas Nebraska act; 5th

D- Missouri Compromise; 6th

Respuesta :

Answer:

B. Missouri Compromise; 5th

Explanation:

In 1854, the Missouri Compromise was repealed by the Kansas-Nebraska Act and three years after that, the Missouri Compromise was declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court in the Dred Scott decision.

It is the 5th amendment that protects the right of property whereas the 6th amendment protects the rights of criminal defendants. Because of this I would say that B is the best choice. Hope this helps and let me know if you have questions!
