Groups are made up of entities. An entity is either a person, or another group. Adding an entity to a group will make the entity a member. If the entity is another group, then all members are indirect members of the group.
Certain members might need additional privileges: for example, an entity might have the Admin privilege so they can modify the membership or assign privileges to members, or an entity might have the Update privilege so they can attest the membership when required.
If a privilege is given to a group, then all members of that group will have the privilege.
