Correct answer: (A) Particular
Explanation

When the predicate holds of only a part of the subject's denotation, the proposition is particular.

Here the subject term is taken in less than its whole extension.

Only some members of the subject class are brought under the assertion.

Forms like "Some S are P" and "Some S are not P" are particular propositions.

Referring to merely a portion of the subject class is the mark of particularity.
