Why are there two AVD for the same API

I installed the Android SDK, and when creating an AVD, I am facing the two choices:

Google APIs (Google Inc.) - API Level 17
Android 4.2.2 - API Level 17

What do these two versions mean?

As the names suggest, Google APIs would give you an AVD with the Google Services installed, like maps, google play services etc.

The other one, is a plain AVD, without these features.
