What is the function of the Domain Name System (DNS)?

Question

options:

A). To sell websites to developers.

B). To translate domain names into IP addresses.

C). To make sure that each IP address has only one corresponding domain name.

D). To assign a unique domain name to every computer.

Answer 1

The correct option is:

B). To translate domain names into IP addresses.

The Domain Name System (DNS) is responsible for converting human-readable domain names (like www.example.com) into machine-readable IP addresses (like 192.0.2.1), allowing users to access websites using easily memorable names rather than numerical addresses.
