Explanation
'Consist' is an intransitive verb that is never used in the passive voice — one says 'The council consists of ten members,' not 'is consisted of.' 'Comprise' takes no preposition ('comprises ten members'), so B's 'comprises of' is also wrong, and 'constituted of' (C) misuses the participle. Hence the answer is A.
