CC stands for 'Carbon Copy'. All email address you put there will also get the e-mail. It is used for sending the same message to a number of people without having to send them 1 at a time.
BCC does the same thing, except the people who receive can not see all the other addresses.
CC - Can see all the other addresses
BCC - Can not see the addresses.

CC means Carbon Copy and BCC means Blind Carbon Copy (although some people erroneously take it to mean Courtesy Copy).
Back in the really old days, before photocopying machines and computers, there was something called carbon paper, which was waxy on one side and coated with a sticky ink on the other side. When you wanted to make two copies of a letter, for example, you would stack two sheets of paper with a sheet of carbon paper between them (ink side down). When you wrote or typed on this stack of paper, whatever you wrote would get transferred to the paper underneath. Then you could send the original (top copy) to the primary recipient and the carbon copy to anyone else who needed to know the information.
Similarly, in an e-mail, you would put the primary recipients of the message in the To line, and then anyone else who might be interested in the information on the CC line. When someone does a Reply All, everyone in the To line and in the CC line should get the response as well.
The BCC line is for e-mail addresses where you don't want everyone else to see. That is, let's say you have a group of acquaintences who don't really know each other. If you put them all on the BCC line, then no one will be able to see the e-mail addresses of the others (that's why it's called Blind Carbon Copy). It's useful if you want to protect the privacy of the other recipients. Note, however, that if someone does a Reply All, the BCC recipients won't get it, since their e-mail address won't show up on any of the copies.
For your situation, I would put all of your different e-mail address on the CC line if you want a Reply All to go to them.

You may fill in the email address in cc to send them a copy.
hence "carbon copy"

CC = Send a copy too.
Bcc = no one will see who you sent it too
