  Flats are large squares of fabric that you can fold into different shapes of diapers. They can also be padfolded and stuffed into a pocket diaper.
  
  Workhorses are made by Green Mountain Diaper and they are a fitted diaper.

  To add to AFwifelife's awesome pictures: a prefold has lots of layers to it, more in the middle than the edges, they come in a few sizes. A flat is a single layer that you need to fold to fit your baby, different folds put the layers in different spots and have more/less layers. Truely one size from birth to potty learning. A workhorse is like a prefold cut and sewn into a fitted diaper. They are available with snap closures or without closures. You use pins or a snappi/boingo to secure all three (except a workhorse with snaps). All three need a cover over top.
  
  ETA: I'm a slow typer and this answer was unessessary.
