they are appointed by the president and confirmed by the senate - I got the answer right, but Ithink i could have defended Senate as an answer too

When I first read it I thought that as well. I was thinking that it was tough to ask that question as people would be confused if they knew enough.
I then re-read it, however, and saw that it said "selects".
That made it clear to me that they were looking for the president as the answer. It is clearly the President that does the selecting, as you said.
