5 0

Answer:

  • Republics and democracies both provide a political system in which citizens are represented by elected officials who are sworn to protect their interests.
  • In a pure democracy, laws are made directly by the voting majority leaving the rights of the minority largely unprotected.
  • In a republic, laws are made by representatives chosen the people and must comply with a constitution that specifically protects the rights of the minority from the will of the majority.
  • The United States, while basically a republic, is best described as a “representative democracy.”

1. Is a hot dog a sandwich? <br> 2. is cereal a soup?
svp [43]
No, a sandwich uses bread. Hotdog uses buns.... unless you are cheap and use bread. Still not a sandwich though.

Cereal is not soup. If it were, it would just be called breakfast soup... but it’s not, it’s called cereal... so, no.
