Reference and Citation
Reference refers to the list of materials that have been consulted and used in the paper.
These can include books, articles, websites, reports, and other sources. 
The reference list is usually included at the end of the paper in a separate section.

Citation, on the other hand, refers to the specific source that has been referenced in a particular part of the paper. 
This means that when a sentence, idea, figure, table, or any other material is used in the paper, the source of that material needs to be cited.
Citations are usually included in the body of the paper.

Therefore, reference and citation are two different concepts, but they are used together in academic papers. 
Citations help to acknowledge the sources of the materials used in the paper, while references provide a list of the sources consulted and used in the paper.
