The correct answer is A) Colonial legislatures should be appointed by the King with the consent of Parliament.

You forgot to include the quotation. Without that information, we do not know what you are talking about.

However, doing some deep research, we can comment on the following.

A valid conclusion that can be drawn from this quotation is "Colonial legislatures should be appointed by the King with the consent of Parliament."

We are talking about Colonial America times, in which the King of England exerted too much power and control over the 13 colonies. One of that heavy taxation legislation was the Stamp Act of 1765.

The quotation that is missing in this question is: "The only representatives of the people of these colonies are persons chosen therein by themselves; and that no taxes ever have been, or can be constitutionally imposed on them but by their respective legislatures."
