Dunamic vs Static Zones?

What is the difference? 
Dynamic zone respawns on shutdown: basically if all players leave the zone, the zone shuts down, and when player enters again zone respawns from scratch.
This will NOT affect npcs who are on wait timers - like a mob which was killed at 9.30 and has 60 min respawn time, will not auto-repop - the timer will be saved and run full 60 min.
However, any mobs that have spawn variations will be affected - if specific spawn point can spawn at 25% mobs A, B, C and D - each zone shutdown/activation will force new %% rerolls, as well as new loots for those mobs
The Static zone is up all the time regardless if anyone in it or not.
