There are many meta tags and html-tags and obviously they don't all influence the search result.

This list of meta tags and their influence will provide you with all the basic information.

There is a difference between html and xml. If you see at the end of a line " /> it means it is xml , if you see  "> it is html.

Google uses several meta tags of it's own. One specific meta tag used by Google is to prevent that a page is added in the cache of the search engine. Cache is an archived version of a webpage that is stored in the database of a search engine. This  provides and shows the (archived) page even if the page is not available anymore on the original website.  By adding the following tag you make sure that the archive function doesn't work :
