Projection: what ever typed in select clause i.e, 'column list' or '*' or 'expressions' that becomes under projection.
*selection:*what type of conditions we are applying on that columns i.e, getting the records that comes under selection.
For example:
SELECT empno,ename,dno,job from Emp
WHERE job='CLERK';
in the above query the columns "empno,ename,dno,job" those comes under projection, "where job='clerk'" comes under selection
