Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Domain Name System (DNS) is responsible for translating domain names (such as www.google.com) into IP addresses that computers can use to locate a website on the Internet. Without DNS, it would be difficult for users to find their way around the Internet. ICANN manages the allocation of domain names and IP addresses, the SBA provides resources and support for small businesses, and the W3C develops technical standards for the Web. However, none of these organizations specifically enable users to navigate the Internet like DNS does.
