Control Element

Hello

I am attempting to answer on of the quiz questions on what is the control element. Im not sure what that is. The video specified the control element being <form> but in the quiz it starts with <div class etc>. If anyone could specify this, that would be great!

The answer comes directly from the Forms/Divs/Input video.

At about time index 2:47 in the video, you are told "The main form control element that we use in our web form is the input element."

The other elements in the example are common HTML elements but not specifically related to forms.
