Games for the Game Boy Advance keep their save data on the cartridge. Although the system does have internal flash memory, this is only used for single-cartridge multiplayer only.

What is the differnece between cartridge and disk video games?

Cartridge and disk video games are simply two styles of storing the game (mostly old and new) sort of like floppies verses CDs for computers. A cartridge is mostly the older way of storing a game for example a lot of the first video games for game systems were on cartridges, which were plastic blocks with the important hardware inside them and one side was open where it was fitted into the system. With cartridge games the saved game data was usually stored on the cartridge it's self. Cartridge games still exist to an extent though they are much smaller for example the game boy SP and advanced games could be considered cartridge games though I am unsure whether DS is quite a cartridge game, older examples are the N64 and most older game systems. Disk video games are exactly what they sound like the game is stored on a disk (similar to a CD or DVD though usually a different size etc), with disk video games the player's saved data is usually saved on a separate memory card. Disk games are much more common now especially with game systems you hook into the tv as oppose to handhelds, for example Game Cubes, Wiis, Playstations, etc.

Can you play Game Boy Color games on Game Boy?

It depends on the game. Many games were released with color capabilities, but could still be played on a B&W GameBoy. The most notable of these I can think of off the top of my head are Pokemon Gold and Silver. Generally speaking: # If the cartridge is a solid color (grey, blue, black, red, etc...), you can play it on an original GamBoy. # If the cartridge is translucent (colored but you can see through it) or clear, it will not work in an original Gameboy.
