Camps, by far. Ghettos held only a couple of million people, where as there were tens of millions in the camps (not all at the same time).

What is the difference between a transit camp and a ghetto during the Holocaust?
When Hitler gained he enforced strict laws on Jews that just kept getting harsher and harsher. Ghettos were usally a sectioned of area in a major city suronded by barbed wire fences and gaurded by Nazis. Ghettos were the place were all the Jews and other undesireables being persecuted by Hitler were sent. These places were impoverished and filthy. People lived and worked in the ghettos but many were forced to do cruel jobs ebforced by the Nazis. When the ghettos got to full the Jews were rounded up and sent to concentration camps. Before the Jews were sent to the concentration camps they were sent to transit camps. Transit camps were where Jews stayed until they were sent to the concentration camp. It was sort of a sorting ground like some may have been sent to Auschwitz well others were sent to Birkenau. Transit camps were similar to concentration camps but the conditions were significanty better.

It is very hard to say, certainly they were not recorded separately. Amongst the shootings on the front, death by beatings occured. In and around the ghettos they also occured and in the camps they happen more than anywhere else. If you were to require a number; expect it to be in the thousands.
When did the Nazis take people to camps during the Holocaust?
Routine major deportations began in October 1941 with the deportation of the Berlin Jews. (At the time, the Nazis didn't have extermination camps, so many of the German Jews were dumped in the already overcrowded ghettos in Warsaw and Lodz, but most were sent to Riga, Latvia, where they were shot).In the early stages of the Holocaust the Nazis sent the killers - the mobile killing units - to the victims, but later they transported the victims to the extermination camps, as they found this simpler, less messy and more 'efficient'.
