c. the populist party had no impact on national politics.

B. The Populist Party caused the two parties to take up some of their positions.

Explanation:

In the 1830s, the populist party joined the Democratic party and helped create the reactionary spirit of the southerners that led them to desire secession. At the end of the secession war, the Democratic party, as well as the populists, were marked by the South defeat and became known as racists and reactionaries.

This joining of the populist party with the democratic party created the jacksonian-populist democrats, where the ideology of the populist party and Andrew Jackson (who was populist) influenced some ideologies of the democrat party.

The Jacksonian-populist Democrats merged with the progressives of Theodore Roosevelt, also represented by Wilson's supporters of the Democratic Party. In the 1920s, many members of the Democratic Party - who had been out of power for many years - merged with the conservative Republican Party and took with them the populist ideologists they found relevant.

With this, we can say that the Populist Party made the two parties assume some of their positions.
