Correct answer: (A) Both Statement I and Statement II are correct

Explanation

Statement 1 is correct because ISPs give paid internet access while browsers let users view web pages.

Statement 2 is correct since each matching page returned by a search engine is called a hit.

An ISP supplies the physical connection and an address to reach the internet.

A browser then requests and renders the pages the user wishes to see.

Search engines rank hits by relevance before listing them.
