Difference between "Last Activity" and "Start of Survey" - Partial Completion

What is difference between these two (last activity and start of survey)?

So, for instance, we sent out a new survey on 7/1/2020.
If I choose, 'start of survey' and a respondent opens up or clicks the link on the survey link on 7/25/2020, he/she can do the survey until 8/25/2020?
Thanks in advance.

You have it correct. And to continue your example, if the resondent went back into the survey on 8/20/2020, that would then push back the date until 9/20/2020 if you had selected "last activity".
Partial Completion | Though that's not the only place to control how long a survey can be responded to necessarily. That option controls what to do with partially completed surveys and whether to delete or strore the responses. You can also set a link expiration date when distributing a survey via email. This affects survey links that were never started as well.
