The port system allows ports to "depend" on other ports.  This means
that before installing port A it will depend on everything that A
depends on (ex. B, C).
When you deinstall A you are not removing B and C.  You are only
removing the top level port.  Upgrading is essentially deinstalling the
 current version and installing the newest version.  This means that if
you "upgrade" A you are not upgrading B or C.  Similarly upgrading B
does not upgrade C OR A.  Think about it like a Matryoshka (stacking)
doll.  Just because you update one doll doesn't mean the others are changed.

For more information try the following:
$man ports
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/ports-using.html
If you have ports-mgmt/portmaster installed try man portmaster.

I hope I am clear.  If you have any further questions don't hesitate to ask.
