Answer: c

Explanation: It is the only one that the south wasn't worried about

Tariffs would allow the North to enter the cotton trade. It was not the main reason for the Southern states opposed the higher tariff.

Why did Southern states oppose higher tariffs?

Congress passed the high shielding tariff that outraged the Southern states because they felt that it industrialized the North. Increasing the tariff on imported goods or increasing the price of British clothes benefitted the domestic industries.
