<em><u>In a representative democracy, the lawmakers are being polled by the citizens of the nation while in a direct democracy citizens pools for the implementation of the law instead of having a political representative.  </u></em>

Further Explanations:

Representative democracy or indirect democracy as the type of democracy based on the principles of elected official’s representation. In this system, the eligible individuals of the realm polls for the implementation of the law as we can take the example of the United States where the president and the other member of congress are being elected by the citizens of the nation. Even the local and state officials are being elected by the inhabitants.

Direct democracy is the form of administration involving the resident of the country while implementing and law framing procedures. The concept denies that few should not rule many and the representatives and are not liable to get the salary. All the official decisions of the nation are taken with the consent of the resident of the nation. One such example of direct democracy was seen in ancient Athenian society where women, foreigners, and slaves were not granted voting rights.

In a representative democracy, citizens of a country pick individuals to make laws for them. This is the case in the United States, as citizens vpte on individuals to serve in the local, state, and national government .


On the other hand, a direct democracy would be one in which the citizens vote on laws themselves instead of having politicians represent their views. This type of democracy is almost impossible in a country with a large population.

monster think that I had admired my cottagers' flawless features, their grace, beauty, and delicate complexions, but how horrified I was when I saw myself in a transparent pool!

The monster observes that the De Laceys have everything they need, including a "delightful house" and every "luxury," including a fire for warmth, "wonderful viands" when they were hungry, "great" clothing, company and conversation, and "looks of care and friendliness." The monster learns that the De Lacey family's poverty and hunger are the root causes of their depression, so he swears not to steal any more of their food and instead decides to assist the family by gathering wood and making repairs to the house and garden. The monster learns about himself for the first time when he notices his reflection in a tiny pool of water and realizes that he is dreadful to look upon. Even in the face of extreme adversity, no matter how horrible he may seem to the world, it cannot stop him from being a good and benevolent creature.

Answer:

c British control over the colonists will only increase.

Explanation:

Patrick Henry, an important figure of the American war of independence said these lines in his famous "Give Me Liberty, or Give Me Death" speech.

In the above lines, the speaker tries to question the listeners that how long will they need to wait to take an action before the Britishers take control of them completely. The point of these lines is to emphasis the fact that British control over the colonists will only increase if they keep on remaining silent and subservient.
