Technically they are both the same, but wood is desired as it will give a more resonant sound. A young student will do fine on a plastic Clarinet, but will want to upgrade as skill is developed.

Plastic clarinets are more durable, however they lack the good tone quality provided by wood. They are also considerably lighter than wood clarinets.

There isn't a "difference" the clarinet is IN the woodwind family. The woodwind family consists of all the saxophones, oboes, bassoons, clarinets, and flutes.

A wooden clarinet is worth more, but a plastic one would be cheaper. I play the Oboe. Check your local Marshall Music for further info.

What is the difference between a German clarinet and a regular clarinet?

If by regular clarinet you mean Boehm System, then the difference is primarily between the schools in which they were developed. The German clarinet or Oehler system is a direct derivative of the clarinets that were in use through all of music history all the way from the clarinet's beginnings in the late baroque era. The Boehm system is based on the flute fingering system of the same name developed in France at the Paris conservatory in conjunction with Klose the writer of the celebrated clarinet method. In more practical terms the two clarinets have many similarities but disagree on notes such as B3 and Bb3 as well as F5 and F#5 as well as a number of less frequently used fingerings and trills. Also, the Oehler system has the great bonus of having every one of its keys above the water line so none of them ever become clogged with spit or condensation during long periods of play. The Boehm system does not have this luxury.
