What is directory schema?
The Active Directory schema defines the kinds of objects, the types of information about those objects, and the default security configuration for those objects that can be stored in Active Directory. The Active Directory schema contains the formal definitions of all objects, such as users, computers, and printers that are stored in Active Directory. On domain controllers running either Windows 2000 or Windows Server 2003, there is only one schema for an entire forest. This way, all objects that are created in Active Directory conform to the same rules. The schema has two types of definitions: object classes and attributes. Object classes such as user, computer, and printer describe the possible directory objects that you can create. Each object class is a collection of attributes. Attributes are defined separately from object classes. Each attribute is defined only once and can be used in multiple object classes. For example, the Description attribute is used in many object classes, but is defined only once in the schema to ensure consistency.

What is Active Directory Recycle Bin?
Active Directory Recycle Bin is a feature that helps minimize directory service downtime by enhancing your ability to preserve and restore accidentally deleted Active Directory objects without restoring Active Directory data from backups, restarting Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS), or rebooting domain controllers. When you enable Active Directory Recycle Bin feature, all link-valued and non-link-valued attributes of the deleted Active Directory objects are preserved and the objects are restored in their entirety to the same consistent logical state that they were in immediately before deletion. For example, restored user accounts automatically regain all group memberships and corresponding access rights that they had immediately before deletion, within and across domains. Active Directory Recycle Bin is functional for both AD DS and Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS) environments. Mohannad Hamid

They are commonly used for importing and exporting directory entries and can include commands for adding, modifying, or deleting objects in Active Directory.
