Red color one & black one is two line strokes. Drawn by using line tool only. One shows Expand & other shows Expand Appearance. What is the reason for that?

Generally, expand appearance is when something else (like a warp for example) has been applied and is live and therefore editable. It would also appear if an appearance had been added via the appearance panel. The video is blurry for me, so I am not sure if you did any of those things, but that is when expand appearance versus expand would show up.

Please do just take screenshots of the selected object and the Appearance panel.

The video is still blurry. So please do just take the screenshots.

 

Expand Appearance is there when you have used special appearances, effects, transparency, brushes ...
