What did the terms of the Missouri Compromise impose on the lands of the Louisiana Purchase?

The Missouri Compromise set latitude 36°30′ as the dividing line for slavery in the Louisiana Purchase lands. Slavery was permitted south of the line, while it was prohibited in most of the territory north of it. Therefore, choice C is correct; the compromise did not make all the lands slave or free, or leave the decision to popular sovereignty.
