In simple terms: http is hypertext transfer protocol, and is the protocol for sending html (etc) across the internet. It is fairly insecure because if somebody intercepts the data along the way, they can read it easily. https is the same protocol but with the addition of encryption. The data sender and intended receiver are the only ones who know the secret keys which is used to decrypt it. Therefore anyone intercepting it will have a tough job of reading what's being transmitted. It's actually a whole lot more complicated than that (of course!) and you can read up on the detail if you desire in many other places, but I think this answers your question.
