what are the differences between RISC processor and CISC processor?

Reduced Instruction Set Computer versus
Complex Instruction Set Computer

Have a look at the instruction set at assembler level - read the
assembler manual. Take two examples for each category. A Z80 may be a
good choice for CISC and MSP430 a good one for RISC.
