The correct answer is letter "A": resources are both publicly and privately owned and some markets are regulated.

Explanation:

Many of today democracies operate under what is known as mixed economic structures that incorporate capitalistic and socialist aspects. A mixed economy is designed to drive economic activity through the ventures of the capitalists while money is collected through taxation to maintain the infrastructure of a nation and provide public services.
