Yes, good question! "Including" is either a preposition or a verb. As a preposition, "including" means "such as." Example: "the store has many different fruits, including pears, apples, and grapes." As a verb, "including" is the active present form of "to include." Example: "I am including my mom in my wedding ceremony." "Inclusive" is an adjective that means "containing a variety of items" or "not excluding things." Examples: "The US is moving away from discrimination to create a more inclusive society." or "The price of the vacation was inclusive of food, drinks, accommodations, and activities."

The term "including" can refrence people,animals, and objects (etc.). While using the word "inclusive" is usually used while talking about groups of people. The differnce is the objects being spoken about.

Hope this helps!
