Answer 1

Answer:

Short answer:

1. A democratic government is one which is elected by people and the main power lies with the voters thus the government is bound to be responsible to the citizens. Hence a democratic government is accountable.  
2. It meets the requests or demands of people so is responsive.  
3. It is a govt. formed after a legal election which occurs at regular intervals so is legitimate.

You can also lay down certain examples such as:

For responsive:

• The government makes policies for the welfare of the citizens and implements them.

For legitimate:

• The government abides a well defined constitution.
• The laws are followed by all irrespective of their level; whether the common people or the government itself.
• Free and fair elections are held at regular intervals.
