B. There is less separation of executive and legislative power in a presidential democracy.
In a presidential democracy, the executive branch (the president) is elected separately from the legislative branch (Congress), whereas in a parliamentary democracy, the executive (Prime Minister) is typically a member of the legislative branch and is chosen from the majority party in parliament. This closer connection between the executive and legislative branches in a parliamentary system allows for more streamlined decision-making and potentially more efficient governance.
