The inode is a data structure that describes a file. The inode is actually a structure on filesystem. To open a file, the kernel copies the inode into memory. As the file changes, the in-core inode is updated usually more often than the on-disk copy. And the in-core inode has a few extra fields that are only needed while the file is opened. This over-simplifies things a little bit, but I think it's enough for now.
