Answer:

In a direct democracy all citizens meet together and make decisions via a vote. In a representative democracy citizens elect leaders who make decisions on their behalf. A republic who is ruled by a official is a form of democracy.

The correct answer is A. Citizens elect leaders who vote on the issues in a representative democracy, and citizens vote on the issues in a direct democracy.

Explanation:

Democracy is a type of political system in which the decisions are directly or indirectly made by the citizens. Due to this, democracy can be classified as direct democracy if the citizens are the ones that vote to made the decisions as it occurs in town meetings in which people from a community gather and directly decide on issues of the community or as indirect democracy in the case citizens select representatives that should defend citizens' interests and decide on issues as it occurs in the case of presidents, governors, mayors, etc.

Thus, the main difference between these two concepts is that in representative democracy citizens elect leaders, while in direct democracy citizens directly decide (Option A).

How were mccarthys accusations against the state department reflective of earlier developments
Evgen [1.6K]

Mccarthy's accusations against the state department were reflective of earlier developments through his accusations that triggered a series of events that defined the Division of Security’s course for the next decade.  

First, there was an establishment of a Congressional committee which called several former and current Department of State officers and advisers to testify and answer charges about their loyalty to redouble its efforts on background investigations of its employees. Second, one Department official’s was reluctant to admission which accidentally triggered a purge of gays at the Department. Thirdly, there was an establishment of the Congressional subcommittee that studied physical security at United States posts overseas, where its report led to increased resources allocation for overseas security.

Mccarthy's had announced that he possessed a list of 205 members of the Communist Party who were “working and shaping policy” in the Department of State.
