    Answer: The correct answer is : The First and Second Estates disrupted the assembly because they could not agree.

    Explanation: The first state was formed by the clergy, the second by the nobility and the third by the bourgeoisie and commoners. The representatives of the first and second states wanted to separate themselves from the third state. These states wanted to block any changes to the privileges they had. Whereas the third state wanted them to be united in one and that each delegate had the right to one vote. The first and second states thought that they could lose more power to the third state, as it actually happened.
