Posting key: posting key enables my account to post, edit, comment, vote, resteem, follow and unfollow other account. Posting key controls the social functions.

Active key: active key helps me when transferring funds, power up and down transaction, updating profile details.

Owner key: owner key can be used to change any key in the basic key including the owner key. The owner key is the most powerful key after the master key.

Memo key: memo key is used for decode memos when transferring funds.

What are the different between the master key and the owner key?
Master key is used to generate documents and other key including the owner key. Master key is been used when your going through account recovery. While
Owner key is been used to reset or change password.
