system testing: once all the modules are integrated,they are tested to find the defects.This is system testing.This is based on overall requirements specifications.Functional testing:This involves testing the basic functionality of the application/program. The knowledge of internal code is not required.This type of testing is done basically by the testers.

Rani,

I hope both the testing is a blockboix oriented. The thing is System testing is a combination of Functional and Non-Fucntional Testing. whereas in Functional testing, we will test only the functionality.

From the requirement (He may wants the profile creation should be done in 10 secs. here we have both function(adding profile)  and non-function(10 secs) . so testing the both is called system testing.

system testing is also called as black box testing technique. it includes functionality testing, performance testing, user interface testing and security testing. so functionality testing is a part of system testing

In Functional testing the testing mainly based on Functionality of the Individual product but in system testing the testing will be done to overall system and its performance after combining all the modules.
