Answer 2

• Lists are mutable homogeneous sequences whereas tuples are immutable heterogeneous data structures.
• Tuples are sequences of different kinds of elements and you deal with the tuple as a coherent unit.
• Lists are sequences of the same kind of elements, and you deal with the items individually.
• Tuples have structure, lists have order.
