Explain means to teach someone a concept or possibly clear up a misunderstanding
Describe can be used in a similar way, but it more deals with giving details and characteristics about a person/place/thing. For example, a police officer might ask you for a description of someone who committed a crime (height, weight, age..)

When we say "explain" it is usually to defend you're point of view or express yourself. For example if I say "I don't want to be friends with you anymore" you would tell me to "explain" as in what my reasoning is behind not wanting to be friends with you anymore. To describe is to give somebody a visual. For example if I say "I saw the most beautiful tree today" you would ask me to "describe" the tree so today you could get a picture in your mind of what it looks ike.

Explain can mean just that, but it can also be used in a much more neutral way basically the same as "to teach". In an example: I was having trouble with my math homework until my professor explained the material in more detail.
