They're not completly extreme but they do make a differance. Tropical gives you grassland and jungle around the equator, arid will give you lots of plains and desert.
Balanced resources means that everyone has the key resources with 4/5 tiles of their start position... I'm not certain what counts as key, I think its Iron, Horse, and Oil.

This article covers (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=246788) the shoreline questions and a few others you may have. It gives a lot of examples of randomly generated maps.
