Hepatitis B is passed on through the blood, as is hepatitis C.Hep B can also be transferred by using dirty/used needles for injecting oneself. Saliva and breast milk are fairly gray areas and it's not yet totally sure if it can be passed through them or not. As far as I know hepatitis A can be passed on in poor sanitary conditions and through contaminated water but don't quote me on that.

I think, Hep A (infectious) can be passed on easily just like a virus.
Hep B( serum) through body fluids, blood semen etc
Hep C apparently only through blood, like sharing needles and I am not sure about the others,
