B. elected representatives.

Explanation:

In the Roman Republic, most political decisions and laws were made by the Roman Senate, a political body of 300 to 500 members, who were indirectly elected by the people and served for life.

They were indirectly elected because Senators were chosen by the consuls, as representatives of the two classes of Roman Society, the plebeians, and the patricians, and the consuls were the ones who were elected directly by the people.
