1st Answer:
Nothing. They are the same person.
2nd Answer:
Baron and baronet are both titles of nobility, but they are very different.
The rank of baron is the lowest of the peerage. This means that barons were allowed to be members of parliament in the House of Lords. For most of the middle ages, the title baron was for a person next in rank below an earl or count.
A baronet is below the rank of baron. The title baronet does not qualify a person as a peer, so a person whose highest title is baronet cannot enter the House of Lords. This means that while a baronet is a nobleman, he is also a commoner, and is qualified for the House of Commons, if he is elected. The next lower title that was used in England was that of a knight. There were very few baronets created during the Middle Ages.
