We discussed the block element and the in line. 
A Block element has the following characteristics:

•  Forms a block and positions itself vertically underneath with a new empty line above and under
• Takes all the available width based on the measure of its parent element 
• Its height changes in rapport to its content
• Can contains other inline and/or block elements 
• Via css, we can impost a fixed width and/or height

An inline element has the following characteristics:

• Positions itself horizontally inline with the rest of the content of its parent element
• Takes the minimum width and height in rapport to its content
• Can contains ONLY other inline elements
• Via css, we can NOT impost fixed measure
