Answer:

the first one is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The main way a representative democracy differs from a direct democracy is that citizens elect leaders who vote on the issues in a representative democracy, while citizens vote on the issues directly in a direct democracy.

In a representative democracy, citizens elect representatives who make decisions on their behalf and are accountable to the people. This system allows for a more efficient decision-making process and allows representatives to consider a wide range of viewpoints when making decision. the other options are not a correct or accurate description of the differences between the two systems
