How to put this simply...

Channels are basically how Photoshop identifies the density of colors and shades in a document. For example, let's just look at the Blue Channel (in RGB mode). The darker the area is, the more blue there is in that area. Completely white means there is no blue there.

Hope this helps a bit. Scott Kelby wrote an entire book about Photoshop Channels even.
