i kept on wondering whats the difference between those two commands. as far as i understood, these commands will make an object into single unit. can someone clarify these to me?

You can get it jumpin' You can get it pumpin' You can get it chasing a cow. Matter o' fact, I got it now.
so does it mean that objects that are group using group command are series of block objects?

Here is from the Help file Blocks vs. Groups
A group is a saved set of objects that you can select and edit together or separately as needed. Groups provide an easy way to combine drawing elements that you need to manipulate as a unit. You can create them quickly and with a default name.
TipGroups are useful in associating 3D solids when you do not want to combine them with a Boolean operation.
You can change the components of groups as you work by adding or removing objects.
In some ways, groups resemble blocks, which provide another method of combining objects into a named set. For example, the groups you create are saved from session to session. However, you can edit individual objects in groups more easily than you can edit them in blocks, which must be exploded first. Unlike blocks, groups cannot be shared with other drawings.
