I assume you are talking about the areas on email that appear when you are sending one, so I will answer that question with that in mind. CC means "carbon copy". You can send a duplicate of that email to anyone's email address you put in that that section. When the email is opened the address(s) you put there will also show up in the opened email. Example: You send the main message to Aunt Betty, but you also want to send a copy to Cousin Itt. Both parties will see each other's name on the email. BCC means "blind carbon copy". When you put an email address in that section no one will see the person's name in that section when the email is opened. Example: You are planning a surprise party for Aunt Betty and send her an email telling her to come to your house at 6:00PM. In the *BCC* area you put Cousin Itt's name and Itt will get the message that the party is at 6 PM, but Aunt Betty won't know anything about it. It's a "blinded" carbon copy.
