Multithreading:
Multithreading is a type of multitasking based upon threads i.e. context switching is done in-between threads.
Thread:
A thread is a lightweight process. Thread uses process’s execution environment i.e. memory area. Context switch time is less in case of processes because switch is done within the same process’s memory area.
