D. A democracy can come in two forms- direct and indirect- while a republic is always indirect

The correct answer is B) A democracy can come in two forms-direct and indirect- while a republic is always indirect.

A democracy is a system of government often credited to the Ancient Greeks. This form of government can be direct (where citizens vote directly on laws within their society) or indirect (citizens elect individuals to make laws for them). However, a republic always results in citizens voting for individuals to make laws for them. America is considered a republic, as we vote for individuals in Congress and for the presidency.
