Answer 1

Sorting is used to sort/ arrange data in a specific manner like Alphabetic, Numeric, Date, etc. It may include the way how the sorted data appears like top-down, bottom-up fashion.

Filtering in contrast is a method of retrieving data as per the specifications given. For example, if you want to want to view entries with residence XYZ you would filter the Residence Column and select XYZ in the drop down, and similarly for other parameters.
