Correct Answer:
Option A —
It is the location of website on internet
URL stands for Uniform Resource Locator. Just as your home has a physical address that people use to find you, a URL is the unique address used to find a specific page, file, or resource on the World Wide Web.Anatomy of a URL
To understand how a URL works, it helps to break it down into its parts. For example, in the URL https://www.example.com/index.html:
Protocol (https://): This tells the browser how to communicate with the website's server (the "Secure" version we discussed earlier).
Domain Name (www.example.com): This is the human-readable name of the server where the website is stored.
Path (/index.html): This specifies the exact location of a specific page or file within that website.
Why the other options are incorrect:
B) It is used to create internet: This is incorrect. The internet was created using networking protocols and physical infrastructure (like cables and satellites). URLs are simply a way to navigate that infrastructure.
C) It is the location of peripheral on internet: A "peripheral" usually refers to hardware like a printer or a mouse. While some networked peripherals have IP addresses, a URL is specifically designed to locate web resources and documents.
