The statement that accurately describes the characteristics of each government type is:

A. Oligarchies and monarchies had a ruling class that presided over the people and made decisions while democracies relied entirely on the people.

This statement correctly emphasizes that both oligarchies and monarchies involve a ruling class or a single ruler making decisions, while democracies are characterized by the involvement of the people in decision-making processes, particularly through voting.
