vetoed the bill and allowed the bank to dissolve.

Explanation

In 1832, President Andrew Jackson vetoed Congress’s bill to renew the Second Bank of the United States’ charter. The veto did not close the bank immediately; its charter remained in effect until 1836, when it expired. Therefore, the correct choice is “vetoed the bill and allowed the bank to dissolve.”
