Question: what is the difference between resin and sap?
Answer: The sap is a clear and thin substance that's way more watery than resin. The resin is an amber-colored, thick, gooey and tacky substance. When you get maple syrup from maple tree sap, it's mainly water with a mild, sweet taste, whereas resin is a gummy material that looks like glue and is used to make turpentine.
