" the samthe's standard deviation and the size of the sample "

From the formula of estimated standard error of the mean we clearly see that we need to only know sample standard deviation and size of the sample to calculate standard error of mean.

So the correct answer is Option A. ( the sample's standard deviation and the size of the sample )
