Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

CONCEPT

A web page is an individual resource designed to be displayed by a web browser. A website is a collection of web pages, while hyperlinks connect those pages and web crawlers discover them.

These terms describe different roles: content, collection, navigation, and automated discovery.

APPLICATION

The stem asks for the name of an individual document available on the World Wide Web. That object is a web page, so the offered value “A page” is the best match.

CONTRAST

  • A link is a reference used to navigate from one web resource to another.

  • A node is a general entity or connection point in a network or graph.

  • A spider is an automated program that follows links and retrieves web resources for indexing.

CROSS-CHECK

A browser displays a page; a link leads to a page; and a spider retrieves pages for indexing. The distinct roles confirm the terminology.

RESULT

A page.
