Routed protocol:Any protocol that provides enough information in its network layer adress to allow a packet to be forwarded from host to host base on the adressing scheme.Routed protocols define the format and use of the fields within a packet.Packets generally are conveyed from end system to end system.The Internet protocol(IP) is an example of a routted protocol.

Routing protocol:Support a routed protocol by providing mechanisms for sharing routing information.Routing protocol messages move between routers.A routing protocol allows the routers to communicate with other routers to update and maintain tables.Examples of routing protocols are Routing Information,Enterior gateway routing protocol(IGRP),Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol(EIGRP),and open shortest Pathe first(OSPF).

Routed Protocol - Monitor the traffic of the network. (IP, IPX)

Routing Protocol - Taking the routin. information from one node to another node of network. (RIP , OSPF).

routed protocol is the one which the basic format and can be transmitted from one network to another.it is the basic structure like IP.

routing protocol is the one which is required to carry the routed protocols to the network destinations.EIGRP,IGRP

Routed Protocols are

IPX/IP-              Internet Packet Exchange/Internet Protocol (Windows Platform)
SPX-                  Sequence Packet Exchange(Novell Platform)
APPLE TALK  Used for apple Systems(Macintos)
Simply it is responsible for trnsmiting packets from host to destination.

Routing Protocols are

IGRP          Interior Gateway Routing Protocol
EIGRP        Enhanced IGRP
OSPF          Open Shortest Path First
RIP              Routing Information Protocol
These are used for choosing the best path.

Routed Protocols Direct the Lan Segments like IP IPX & Apple Talk..Whereas routing protocols use routed protocols to make their communication possible.(Rip/igrp/IS-IS/ospf/Eigrp)are few routing protocols.
