Explanation

Democracy is a system of government of many of the modern states that from its Latin root means "government of the people." In ancient times, primitive forms of democracy arose in which part of the town's citizens actively participated in the election processes. However, at present, due to the number of people that make up a state, it is difficult to participate and take into account the opinion of each of them, so democracy became representative, that is, citizens choose their rulers (leaders) by vote during a period generally of four years. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Leaders must be selected by the citizens rather than inheriting power.
