Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The second section in the given URL represents the server name, which in this case is "mail.google.com". The scheme in a URL refers to the protocol used (such as https, ftp, etc.), the path specifies the location of a particular resource on the server, and there is no concept of a "family" in URL structures.
