HTML markup tags are usually called HTML tags.
HTML tags are keywords (tag names) surrounded by angle brackets like <html>.
HTML tags normally come in pairs like <b> and </b>.
The first tag in a pair is the start tag, the second tag is the end tag.
The end tag is written like the start tag, with a forward slash before the tag name.
Start and end tags are also called opening tags and closing tags.
HTML Element is everything between the opening tag and closing tag.
Empty Elements are closed in the start tag with a space followed by a forward slash and then the greater than symbol.
