Explanation:
Statement 1 is incorrect as Parliament represents all elected members from political parties, whereas the government represents the majority party or coalition in power.
Statement 2 is correct as a parliamentary form of government is characterized by a cabinet or council of members from the legislature who hold executive power and are accountable to the legislature.
Statements 3 and 4 are incorrect as elected parliamentarians serve a fixed term and can only be removed through specific processes such as right to recall, rather than being subject to immediate removal by the people.
