Difference between FloodFill and Watershed

What is the difference between OpenCV's functions floodFill() and watershed? I seem to understand that watershed takes some markers and fills from there. But it looks like flood fill does the same thing except it has a mask and seeds (not markers).

What is the difference and when is one method better/more applicable than the other?
