To compare and contrast two things means to find the similarities and differences between them. For example, compare and contrast the islands of Hawaii and Puerto Rico. Both have mountains, but Hawaii has volcanos. The residents of both are American Citizens, but those in Hawaii speak English and those in Puerto Rico speak Spanish. Both are tropical islands, but the mountains in Hawaii are tall enough to have some temperate zone plants.

"Compare" means to identify similarities between two or more things, while "contrast" means to identify differences between them. When asked to compare and contrast, you are prompted to analyze the similarities and differences that exist.
