Answer:

A memoir uses first-person point of view, while a biography uses third-person point of view.

A memoir expresses the author’s thoughts and feelings about events, while a biography is the story of someone’s life as told by another person.

Explanation:

A memoir is a self-biography book, written by a person about her/his life.  I can be complete (from birth to the moment of writing) or partial (covering only a part of the life, say like time spent in politics for example).

So, the person will refer to the main character of the biography (herself/himself) as "I" and not as "She"/"He".  Since a memoir is most like a personal journal made public.

Since it's a form of public journal, it's expected to have some insights, thoughts, feelings about the person that no one else can provide.
