The correct option is this: Missouri would upset the balance between the equal number of slave trades and free states.
In 1820, when Missouri was about to be admitted into the union, the issue of slavery came up again, because there had been tension between the north and the south concerning the issue of slavery. At that time the number of states who participate in slavery and those who did not were equal. But when Missouri applied to the union as a slave state, there was controversy because its admission will upset the balance of free and slave states.
