Define resolution in regards to images and how it differs from colour depth

Resolution is the number of pixels in a given unit area (dots per inch). A higher resolution increases the quality of an image. Colour depth is the amount of memory stored by each pixel (number of bits per pixel). The higher the number of bits per pixel, a wider variety of colours are available.
