It's an incomplete, therefore wrong, description of "<span>B. Browser using a URL to access a web page"

After the nameserver returns the IP address of the domain, the client machine makes the page request from the IP address. The client's browser parses (reads) the HTML code, makes calls to the server for any other files (href, img and media) and displays the HTML content according to visual specifications in the CSS (Cascading Style Sheet).
