A. Tariff placed a Higher Tax on Cotton Plantations.

Explanation
—————————

In 1828, Congress passed a high protective tariff that infuriated the southern states because they felt it only benefited the industrialized north. For example, a high tariff on imports increased the cost of British textiles. This tariff benefited American producers of cloth mostly in the north.
