What is WORD WIDE WEB?


  WWW {WORD WIDE WEB}

jcmtrgt.Blogspot.Com World Wide Web, which is also known as a Web, is a collection of web sites or web pages stored in web servers and connected to local computers through the internet. These websites contain text pages, digital images, audios, videos, etc. Users can access the content of these sites from any part of the world over the internet using their devices such as computers, laptops, cell phones, etc. The WWW, along with internet, enables the retrieval and display of text and media to your device.


The building blocks of the Web are web pages which are formatted in HTML and connected by links called "hypertext" or hyperlinks and accessed by HTTP These links are electronic connections that link related pieces of information so that users can access t thihe desired information quickly. Hypertext offers the advantage to select a word or phrase from text and thus to access other pages that provide additional information related to that word or phrase.A web page is given an online address called a Uniform Resource Locator (URL). A particular collection of web pages that belong to a specific URL is called a website, eg, www.facebook.com, www.google.com, etc. So, the World Wide Web is like a huge electronic book whose pages are stored on multiple servers across the world.
Small web sites store all of their Web Pages on a single server, but big web sites or organizations place their Web Pages on different servers in different countries so that when users of a country search their site they could get the information quickly from the nearest server.  

How the World Wide Web Works?

Now, we have understood that WWW is a collection of websites connected to the internet so that people can search and share information. 

The Web works as per the internet's basic client-server format as shown in the following image. The servers store and transfer web pages or information to user's computers on the network when requested by the users A web server is a software program which serves the web pages requested by web users using a browser. The computer of a user who requests documents from a server is known as a client. Browser, which is installed on the user computer, allows users to view the retrieved document.
All the websites are stored in web servers. Just as someone lives on rent in a house, a website occupies a space in a server and remains stored in it. The server hosts the website whenever a user requests its WebPages, and the website owner has to pay the hosting price for the same.

How is urine produced? The purpose of making urine is to filter out waste products from the blood. Just as CO, is removed from the blood in the lungs. nitrogenous waste such as urea or uric acid are removed from blood in the kidneys. It is then no surprise that the basic filtration unit in the kidneys. like in the lungs, is a cluster of very thin-walled blood capillaries. Each capillary cluster in the kidney is associated with the cup-shaped end of a coiled tube called Bowman's capsule that collects the filtrate.Each kidney has large numbers of these filtration units called nephrons packed close together. 7.
