The answer is: B. Council members were chosen randomly, and men could present laws for debate in assembly.

In Athenian democracy, the councils members consist of true representatives of the people. The random choosing is intended to make every segments of the population have the chance to be representative in the government.

Athenians at that time adopt a direct democracy. This mean that after all the council men presents their laws for debate, the common people could directly vote for the legislation that they want to implement in the country.  (in united states, we cannot do this. We can only vote for the representatives and trust them to make the law for us)
