The script tag is like other HTML tags. Opening tag is the name of the tag inside arrows, <tag name>, and the closing tag is identical except for adding a "/", like this </tag name>.

The "body" is identified by the opening and closing body tags.

If you haven't already, you may want to take the HTML courses to help you understand.
