Mexico had claimed Texas. The US wanted Texas, arguably because many Americans believed in Manifest Destiny-- we were 'entitled' to lands from ocean to ocean. If America had not already worked out eastern Canadian-US boundaries in the French and Indian War, and if the French had not strongly set up control over Canada, Americans probably would have pushed north, too, under Manifest Destiny.

Once the US took over Texas, the US stopped pushing further south.

The most closely related option to the Mexican-American War is C) Manifest Destiny. Manifest Destiny was the belief that it was the destiny of the United States to expand westward and spread democracy and civilization. This belief played a significant role in justifying U.S. territorial expansion, including the annexation of Texas and the Mexican-American War.
