Difference between Responsive and Mobile Website

Responsive Website Mobile Website 
Responsive websites are designed to fit all screen sizes such as desktop, laptop, mobile, tablets.   Mobile websites are designed specially to fit mobile screen sizes.  
These sites are not device specific I.e.device-specific the can be viewed on any device without any problem.  These sites are device specific I.e., can be viewed and look better only on a device-specific mobile device.  
Content and features remain same across all devices.  As websites are mobile device specific, therefore content can be different from both mobile and desktop versions.  
These websites look good on both large and small screen devices as these websites adjust itself automatically to best fit screen size.  These websites won’t look good and correct on large screen devices such as desktop or laptop because they are made for small screen devices. 
It requires less maintenance because there is no other separate version of the website to maintain.   It requires more maintenance as desktop version of the website also requires the same amount of maintenance as that required by the mobile version.  
There is no separate mobile domain, it uses same URL across all devices that in turn bring it higher on SEO Rank.   There is a separate mobile domain and desktop domain, it uses different URLs for both desktop and mobile versions. It is difficult to manage two SEO campaigns.  
Maintaining only one website requires less time, effort, cost as compared to maintaining two versions of website.  Maintaining two website version requires more time, effort, cost as compared to maintaining one website.  
Changes made to content or features will automatically update content and features across all devices.   If one wants to change or update content, then they need to make changes to both mobile and desktop versions.
