Equivalent airspeed is speed at sea level in which the incompressible dynamic pressure can be produces as if it were at true airspeed. Equivalent airspeed is used to predict aircraft handling.

What raises and lowers a plane during flight?

It depends on your airspeed. At normal cruise airspeed, an increase or decrease of engine thrust causes an aircraft to ascend or descend. At approach airspeed, a slower airspeed with flaps lowered, raising or lowering the elevators causes the aircraft to ascend or descend.

Dose airspeed around an airplane wing change in constant airspeed if the airplan is with headwind or tailwind?

No. 'Airspeed' is the airplane's speed relative to the air. 'Headwind' and 'tailwind' ... in fact, 'wind' in any direction ... is the speed of the air relative to the ground, which the airplane doesn't feel. So 'wind' affects only the craft's groundspeed, not its airspeed.
