This is generally true for everywhere here in the states:

In jelly, the fruit comes in the form of fruit juice.
In jam, the fruit comes in the form of fruit pulp or crushed fruit (and is less stiff than jelly as a result).
In preserves, the fruit comes in the form of chunks in a syrup or a jam.

Jello is nothing more than gelatin, water, sugar, and food coloring.
