Explanation:

The Indian Removal Act led to the forced relocation of Native American tribes, including the Cherokee on the Trail of Tears, where thousands died. The other options are incorrect: the Southeastern tribes were moved to Oklahoma (not Wyoming), the spread of slavery wasn't directly disrupted by this act, and Southern slave owners generally supported Indian removal (not protested it).

Answer:

A. Thousands of Cherokee died on the Trail of Tears.
