Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Concept
Web terms are classified by function: a URL identifies a resource and its access route, a browser retrieves and renders web content, a website organizes related webpages, and a web server supplies files over web protocols.
An acronym must be interpreted by its established expansion; OCR means optical character recognition, not a web location or delivery network.
Application
Statement (A): A URL conventionally contains a scheme or protocol, a host or domain, and a path that locates a resource. The statement is true.
Statement (B): A web browser is application software that retrieves and displays content from the World Wide Web. The statement is true.
Statement (C): A website is an organized collection of related webpages under a common site or domain. The statement is true.
Statement (D): OCR denotes optical character recognition. Web servers make files available over web protocols or the WWW, not on OCR, so this statement is false as written.
Contrast
(A), (B) and (C) only includes the three supported web definitions and excludes the OCR claim.
(B), (C) and (D) only omits the supported URL statement and includes the OCR claim.
(A) and (D) only omits the supported browser and website statements and includes the OCR claim.
(A), (B), (C) and (D) includes the OCR claim together with the three supported statements.
Therefore, the true statements are (A), (B) and (C) only.
