Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The correct term for this characteristic of the Web is "statelessness." This means that the Web does not retain information from one interaction to another, and each request/response cycle is independent. This is in contrast to a "stateful" system, which does retain information about the user's session or previous interactions. The other answer choices ("cacheless" and "checkless") do not accurately describe this characteristic of the Web.
