If you have the Document Properties in mind: "Resize" may change the DPI only, while "Resample" also affects the pixel dimensions (total amount of pixels, Megapixels) and thus "Resample" adds or removes pixels from the current document.

If you have object / layer editing in mind then a pixel layer gets resized at the current document resolution (DPI) and resampling affects this layer when rasterizing gets selected. This means you can downsize a pixel layer and upsize it at a later time without loss unless you don't rasterize it in between.

If you have export in mind then an export as raster image file (JPG, PNG, TIF, etc.) changing the current size will always resample, while export as PDF offers an option to avoid downsampling (or may even upsample under certain conditions).
