This document is a grade 12 worksheet on understanding the Domain Name System (DNS). It contains three activities: 1. A true/false section testing basic DNS concepts like how computers communicate using IP addresses and how DNS translates domain names to IP addresses. 2. A diagram labeling the routes of a DNS query from a computer to a website, going through the local DNS server, root server, and top-level domain server. 3. A multiple choice section testing DNS terminology like the functions of DNS resolvers, root nameservers, authoritative nameservers, and caches in resolving domain names to IP addresses on the internet.
