I did some research and found this: https://www.lifewire.com/web-browser-developer-tools-3988965.

"Resources: This is where you can inspect cookies, local storage, app cache, and other local data sources used by the current Web page or application"

Since resources includes local data such as cookies and app cache, it would be possible for it to vary significantly from the data you actually download in your page.
