When an application is to be processed, then it creates a thread.
It is then allocated the required resources(such as a network) and it comes in the READY queue.
When the thread scheduler (like a process scheduler) assign the thread with processor, it comes in RUNNING queue.
When the process needs some other event to be triggered, which is outsides it’s control (like another process to be completed), it transitions from RUNNING to WAITING queue.
When the application has the capability to delay the processing of the thread, it when needed can delay the thread and put it to sleep for a specific amount of time. The thread then transitions from RUNNING to DELAYED queue.
An example of delaying of thread is snoozing of an alarm. After it rings for the first time and is not switched off by the user, it rings again after a specific amount of time. During that time, the thread is put to sleep.

When thread generates an I/O request and cannot move further till it’s done, it transitions from RUNNING to BLOCKED queue.
After the process is completed, the thread transitions from RUNNING to FINISHED.
The difference between the WAITING and BLOCKED transition is that in WAITING the thread waits for the signal from another thread or waits for another process to be completed, meaning the burst time is specific. While, in BLOCKED state, there is no specified time (it depends on the user when to give an input).

from Java

NEW – a newly created thread that has not yet started the execution
RUNNABLE – either running or ready for execution but it’s waiting for resource allocation
BLOCKED – waiting to acquire a monitor lock to enter or re-enter a synchronized block/method
WAITING – waiting for some other thread to perform a particular action without any time limit
TIMED_WAITING – waiting for some other thread to perform a specific action for a specified period
TERMINATED – has completed its execution
