Terminology clarification required: Apex version vs API version

Hi guys

 

In the APEX Developer's Guide on the topic of "Defining Triggers" you have this:

 

Click Version Settings to specify the version of Apex and the API used with this trigger.

 

However when you look at a trigger and click "Version Settings", you only really see the dropdown (for the Version number) for "Salesforce.com API", no "Apex version".

 

What exactly are the differences between Apex version and API version?  I assume API version means Salesforce API version.  Even then, what are the differences?  For example, for Spring 2013, I would assume they must both be version 27.0, is it not?  I wonder if it has to do with some historical configuration of Salesforce.

 

Thanks

King
