Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

In direct democracy, all citizens vote on each issue brought before the governing body. In the representative democracy, citizens vote for a person to represent their views and it is this person who actually votes in the governing body. Direct democracies, by their nature, can only operate in the less populated societies.
