I am doing my homework and I need some help with Realized and Unrealized losses on Temporary Investments?

What’s difference between realized and holding gains and losses on investments in debt and equity securities? Please help these are the only questions I am stuck on.

With the realized losses, the money didn’t arrive. You are short and you know exactly how much. With unrealized losses you are guessing because they aren’t due yet.
