It's CBAC you are dealing with. You have an acl to protect you from incoming traffic. If trffic to a certain destination exits your router, then an entry is added to this acl to permit responses from that destination to come in. That's all. Inspect means the router makes that inspection on outound traffic in order to add permit entries in the in acl.
