jelly is in the form of jell, hence jelly
jam is in jell form but with whole fruit,seeds and skins
marmalade is a whole different category,it does not require as much sugar to make it, it's consistency is thicker and the canning process is different and I think a little trickier to make I think the citrus answer is they have more flesh compared to other fruits
good luck

Jam is made with the actual fruit still inside the preserve. Which it is also called preserve because it 'preserves' the fruit.
Jelly is without any fruit pieces in it. It is smooth.
Marmelade is more tart than sweet and made with citrus fruit i.e. lemon, orange etc.

Jelly is strained and has no seeds.
Jam has the whole fruit.
Marmalade is a term used for citrus fruits, and it includes the skin.
