Upgrading Ubuntu through updates

I would like to know if upgrading Ubuntu from 12.04 to 12.10 via update is actually downloading the complete 12.10 OS or its just the necessary files.

Thank you

The mentioned image says everything better than i will now, but still...

It will only download the new packages which are needed, which may be a lot but only them.
