In a republic, represent territories and citizens in government.
a.
absolute monarchs
b.
dictators
c.
elected officials
d.
military leaders

C) elected officials

Explanation:

The main objective, more than just represent the presidential body in the territories, it's the concept of decentralization. What does that mean? When the Executive divided its power into elected officials, there's no possibility to have a despotic or dictatorship government because there's no full power in the hands of the Executive.
