Correct answer choice is:

(D) Ephron could take kings out of power.

Step-by-step explanation:

They were rulers of early Sparta and distributed power with the two Spartan kings. They were a committee of five elected yearly who testified "on behalf of the city", while the kings testified for themselves. They held various responsibilities including legislative, judicial, financial, and executive duties.
