In all seriousness:
1. Application hosting is what it sounds like - merely hosting an application on either a single dedicated server, a cluster of them, or a cloud environment.
2. Cloud hosting is an advanced, virtualized pooling of distributed resources acting as a single computing entity, with storage, processing and memory all decentralized to improve resource efficiency and data redundancy. This is typically *not* going to be as high performing as a dedicated solution though.
