What is the difference between mixing and mastering a track? How can you tell good distinctions from good and bad mixing/mastering?

Mixing is like taking all the ingredients of a cake and then putting them together so that it tastes well balanced. All the flavours are at the right level, nothing overpowering everything else – unless that’s what you want to do.
Mastering is then decorating the cake. Making sure, for example, that it fits in nicely and matches the colour and flavour palates of the other cakes that are presented on the same shelf.
