main differences between elements and photoshop CS

Hello retouching experts,

Can you tell me what are the main differences between Photoshop CS6 and Elements 11?

Particularly, I have some specific questions:

- does Elements use the last version of ACR to convert raw files?

- are tools like the cloning tool and all the PS CS selection tools present in Elements?

- is it possible to record scripts in Elements like in PS CS?

- does Elements accepts plugins like Color efex Pro, Silver efex pro, Viveza?

Thank you for your help.
