what's the difference between refraction and reflection

OpenStudy (zephyr141):

refraction is what happens when light travels through a medium that results in light "bending" and leaving the medium at a different angle than before. reflection is when light does not proceed through a medium and instead "bounces" off the surface in another direction.|dw:1413823965738:dw|
