Detailed Solution

Relationship between pressure groups and political parties:
1)      A pressure group is an organisation created by people who share a profession, hobby, or even opinion. In contrast, a political party is created when a collection of individuals come together to run in elections and ultimately wield the reins of power.
2)      In contrast to political parties, which are formal institutions, pressure groups are informal institutions.
3)      While a political party has a fairly diverse membership, a pressure organisation has a relatively small membership.
4)      While political parties must stand in front of voters during elections and are held accountable to voters, pressure groups are not.
