The Home Depot website has these two as categories under Dimensional Lumber.

Why would one want to exclude items from one category during a search for wood to use in a project?

What is the difference?

Studs are cut to length at the mill so you can build your 8’ walls without cutting the ends off the top and bottom plates with studs make a quick tilt up wall, the rest is true 8’ 10’ 12’ . Note if remodeling verify length prior to building a wall.
