Lists maintain order and allow duplicate elements, accessed by index, while dictionaries store key-value pairs with unique keys for fast retrieval, accessed by keys, offering efficient data organization and access methods differing fundamentally.

Lists: Ordered sequences of items accessed by their position (index). They can hold duplicates and elements can be changed.
Dictionaries: Unordered collections of key-value pairs. Each key must be unique and is used to access its corresponding value.
Mutability: Both lists and dictionaries are mutable, allowing their contents to be modified after creation.
