What these zones are, in the county’s own words

CA — General Business Zone
“This zone is for general retail business and services but not for manufacturing or for processing materials other than farm products, except that portable sawmills are allowed.” — §5.31.01, The Zoning Ordinance of Knox County, Tennessee (as amended through 2023-08-28)
RB — General Residential Zone
“This residential zone provides for medium population density. The principal uses of land may range from houses to multi-dwelling structures or developments. Certain uses which are more compatible functionally with intensive residential uses than with commercial uses are permitted.” — §5.12.01, The Zoning Ordinance of Knox County, Tennessee (as amended through 2023-08-28)

Quoted verbatim from the ordinance’s “general description” of each zone — what a zone permits in full is defined by the complete ordinance text at the link.
