Which statement best describes a difference between a democracy and a republic?

Answer - A) citizens in a democracy can ether directly or indirectly influence the government, while citizens in a republic can only indirectly influence government through elected officials

Democracy - "a system of government by the whole population or all the eligible members of a state, typically through elected representatives."

Republic - "a state in which supreme power is held by the people and their elected representatives, and which has an elected or nominated president rather than a monarch."
