Correct answer: (A) Subject
Explanation
The quantity of a proposition is fixed by the extension of its subject.
If the subject covers its whole class, the proposition is universal.
If the subject covers only part, the proposition is particular.
The predicate's extension does not decide quantity.
Thus quantity depends on how much of the subject is taken.
