In HTML, tags represent HTML elements.

An HTML element is abstract. A tag implements an HTML element in a web page or other document.

One Tag, Two Tag

Some elements have one tag:

<img src="image.jpg" alt="element with one tag" />

Most elements use two tags: an opening tag, and a closing tag:

<p>Text inside paragraph.</p>

Elements with two tags serve as containers. Any content between the opening tag and the closing tag is contained by the container element.
