They are both adjectives, and "adopted" can be a verb as well. "Adoptive" modifies the person who is doing the adopting, e.g. "The adoptive mother." "Adopted" as an adjective modifies the person being adopted, as in "My adopted son." Adopted can also be the past tense of a verb, e.g. "I adopted my son in 2007." And to use both in one sentence: "The adoptive mother adopted her adopted son in 2007." Ta-da!
