cc - carbon copy = same email sent to multiple people with a list of receivers

bcc - blind carbon copy = same email sent to multiple people without revealing who received it

you use a bcc when you want to send an email to a few people without them knowing who got it.

CC = 'carbon copy'. It sends a copy of the email to the recipients listed in the box.
BCC = 'blind carbon copy'. Same as carbon copy, except that if an address is included in this box, it will be hidden from any other recipients, so that it appears as though it was never sent to the BCC address at all.

They're not the same, but their function is pretty similar. Its just - for this question - you would have to write something like:

"To:" is for the main recepient of the email, whereas "CC:" is for someone (possibly related to the content of the email) who needs a copy of the email, with the address SHOWN, and "BCC:" is for someone you want to send a copy of the email to, BUT not let the other "To:" and "CC:" recepients know

P.S. as said prev, you can have multiple recepients for each box (To, CC, and BCC), but the convention is for the main recepient in the To field etc.....
