First off, don't be so hard on yourself, that was honestly a great question! On to the actual answer, C and C++ are very similar languages, some would even say they're like sister languages. One of the major differences between the two is that C++ supports object oriented programming, meaning it allows for the use of classes, polymorphism, inheritance, etc. C, on the other hand, does not have any support for it (at least with the standard library), meaning it can be a little limiting in some areas, making C++ the go to for most projects that could be made easier with OOP. Hope this helped!

c is very low level its only good for creating systems and certain softwares only nowadays.. its easier than c++ but lacks some powerful features.
