The correct answer is c. its denunciation of roman catholic immigrants

(C) would be the most correct answer. The Know-Nothings were a nativist movement that sprung up in response to Roman-Catholic sentiment in the 1850s, and was regarded as one of the most anti-Catholic parties of the period. The party ran on a platform of nativist sentiment that denounced immigration to the US by Catholics from western and central Europe.
