Key Light
The key light is the most important light because it defines your subject the most. It is important to know that since the key light is your main light, it is also the reference point for your other lights.
Fill Light
The fill light is used to fill in the shadows created by the key light. This will give your subject a softer appearance.
Backlight
The backlight separates the subject from the background, adding dimensionality to the overall look.
