Answer Title
Answer
Along with the RDBMS software, Oracle provides two utilities that you can use to back up and restore the database. These utilities are Export and Import.

The Export utility dumps the definitions and data for the specified part of the database to an operating system binary file. The Import utility reads the file produced by an export, recreates the definitions of objects, and inserts the data

If Export and Import are used as a means of backing up and recovering the database, all the changes made to the database cannot be recovered since the export was performed. The best you can do is recover the database to the time when the export was last performed.

The recovery model is a database property. It defines the method you wish to use when recovering your database; depending on the mode you select, different amounts of information will be preserved for each backup. Simple recovery: This option restores a database to its state at the time of its most recent backup. Any changes made after the last full or differential backup are lost (no transaction log backups are made). Full recovery: This option restores a database to its state at the point of failure. Bulk-logged recovery: This option enables bulk-logged operations, which means that certain database operations, such as SELECT INTO operations or BCP/Bulk Copy, will be logged minimally or not at all. The risk of data loss is higher than with the full-recovery model, as bulk-logged recovery does not provide point-in-time recovery
