First off, I'm assuming you know what a microprocessor is. If not, please go look up that question (or, a related topic, the CPU (Central Processing Unit).
32 and 64 bits processors refer to the size of the native (default) word size in a processor. In a 32 bit processor, all basic operations happen on chunks of information 32-bits in size - information requiring more storage requires multiples of the 32-bit word. Likewise, 64-bit processors operate with a native size of 64-bit words.
See the related question below for a more thorough explanation of the impact of 32 vs 64 bit native word size in a processor.

Do you need 32bit or 64bit for 4gb of ram?
You can use either a 32bit or 64bit operating system (OS) for 4GB of RAM. 4GB of memory is the limit a 32bit OS can handle, this includes any memory that your graphics card has, so your computer may recognise only 3.5GB of RAM if you have a 512MB GPU. You will need a 64bit os that will use all of the ram.
