- Android platform version (APV) is a version of android operating system.

For instance, it likes window 7, window Xp and so on of Window OS.
- Android Api Level (API) is corresponding library support for APV. It allows
programmer show the new features in applications.

The Android platform provides a framework API that applications can use to
interact with the underlying Android system. Therefore, API is compatible with
each certain APV.
[1]
The framework API consists of:

 A core set of packages and classes

 A set of XML elements and attributes for declaring a manifest file
 A set of XML elements and attributes for declaring and accessing resources
 A set of Intents
 A set of permissions that applications can request, as well as permission
enforcements included in the system

When API updated a new version, a new feature will be introduced. But,
applications still using it because old version of API level is not deleted.
