In a presidential democracy, the people directly (or indirectly, like in the US) elect their president or chief executive. The executive branch is separate from the legislative branch of government.
In a parliamentary democracy, the people only elect the members of parliament, who then elect a prime minister to serve as the head of government, and members of the parliament are also in the executive sector of government (ie...ministers)

The main difference between parliament and presidential democracy lies in the separation of powers. In a parliamentary democracy, the executive branch is headed by a prime minister or chancellor who is elected by the parliament. The executive and legislative branches are closely interconnected, with the parliament holding considerable power. In a presidential democracy, there is a clear separation of powers between the executive (headed by a president) and legislative branches. The president is directly elected by the people and acts as the head of state and government, with significant powers independent of the legislature.
