Introduction
Database queries — use set algebra and Boolean algebra. Set algebra uses
the comparison operations less than, greater than, equal to and not equa
to. An example of set algebra is, "Show all the records that are greater th
or equal to X". Boolean algebra uses the words And, Or, Like and Not. Bot
of these types of queries focus on the features and attributes that are in
the dataset.
Spatial queries — use spatial logic. For example, "Show all the X within a
relationship to space Y". It is more like Venn diagram logic. These queries
focus more on the physical relationships between datasets such as finding
all the rivers that are within a given state or all the states that are adjac
to a river.

Clip
Determines the spatial reference for processing. This will also be the
spatial reference of the output feature class. For details on how this
is done, see Spatial Reference. All the input features are projected
into this spatial reference for processing.
Cracks and clusters the features. Cracking inserts vertices at the
intersection of feature edges; clustering snaps together vertices that
are within the xy tolerance.
Discovers geometric relationships (intersections) between features
from all the feature classes or layers.

Instead, you can access the related data when you work
with the layer's attributes.
