    A. The sky in the form of a constellation confined Cassiopeia.

    Explanation:

    Poseidon thought Cassiopeia should not escape punishment, so he placed her in the heavens chained to a throne in a position that referenced Andromeda's ordeal. The constellation resembles the chair that originally represented an instrument of torture.
