Answers:
Jam is a type of fruit preserve made by boiling fruit with sugar to make an unfiltered jelly.

A jelly is a sweet or savoury food gel, usually made through the addition of gelatin or pectin to edible liquids.

Sweet jellies include pectin-based fruit jam or gelatin desserts such as Jell-O and blancmange. Savoury jellies include aspic or plain gelatine. Vegetarians and Vegans make jellies using seaweed-based agar as opposed to animal collagen-based gelatin.

In the United States, the usual distinction between "jelly" and jam is that the latter contains visible pulp, seeds, or pieces of fruit, whereas the former does not.

Marmalade is a sweet conserve made from fruit, sugar, and (usually) a gelling agent. In English-speaking usage "marmalade" invariably refers to a conserve derived from a citrus fruit. Typically the recipe will include sliced fruit peel and will prescribe a long cooking time in order to soften the peel; indeed marmalade is sometimes described as jam with fruit peel.

Preserves are fruit cooked with sugar to protect against decay or fermentation.

Other Answers:
Jelly, is fruit juice, sugar with addition of gelatin or peptin(natural gelatin from fruits)
Jam is jelly with addition of fruit bits.
Marmalade is from any citrus fruit with addition of it zest.
and Preserves are usually, preserved whole fruits... :)
