Answer 2

Correct answer choice is :

B) That could not be divided.

Step-by-step explanation:

Democritus was a Greek scholar who lived within 470-380 B.C. He elaborated the theory of the atom, Greek for permanent. Democritus thought that everything in the world was made up of atoms, which were tiny and durable. They assumed that matter was made up of very small particles. They named these particles atoms, which comes from an antique Greek word signifying permanent. These atoms were supposed to be absolutely indivisible and forever.
