Which of the 4 are you talking about?
A taco is made from a soft corn tortilla (the American imitation came from the way people pick up tacos normally, it makes that sort of shape, leading to the selling of the hard-shell variety where it looks like that already) piled up with...pretty much whatever you want.
A tostada is basically the same thing, except on a fried tortilla.
The Mexican pizza uses two tostada shells, putting the meat between them and throwing everything else on top with a liberal sprinkling of cheese.
The tortilla is to Mexicans what bread is to Americans/Europeans. So long as you have a piece of it, you can make practically anything.
