The correct answer is A. Free adult males.
In order to find the answer to this question, we need to understand the structure of the ancient Athenian democracy. Athenian democracy was one of the first known democratic systems in the world, dating back to ancient Greece. In this system, the citizens of Athens had the right to participate directly in the decision-making process through an assembly.
To determine who was part of this assembly, we need to consider the criteria for Athenian citizenship. In ancient Athens, citizenship was limited to free adult males who were born to Athenian citizens. Free adult males were considered full citizens and had the right to participate in the assembly, attend meetings, and vote on important matters.
Therefore, the correct answer is A. Free adult males were part of the assembly in ancient Athenian democracy.
