Final answer:

Representative democracy includes elected representatives making decisions, while direct democracy involves citizens directly participating in decision-making processes.


Explanation:

Representative democracy involves citizens electing representatives to make political decisions and pass laws on their behalf, while in a direct democracy, people participate directly in making government decisions and laws without representatives. In a direct democracy, all male citizens in ancient Athens, for example, were allowed to attend meetings to vote on proposed laws.
