Can CSS target elements in a "body" that's not highlighted in HTML?

Yes, CSS can target elements in a "body" that's not highlighted in HTML.

CSS selectors allow you to select elements based on various criteria such as their element type, class, ID, or attribute. You can use these selectors to target elements regardless of whether they are highlighted in the HTML or not.

For example, you can use CSS selectors such as body p to select all <p> elements within the <body> element, or .my-class to select all elements with the class "my-class" regardless of their element type.

You can also use attribute selectors to target elements based on their attributes, such as [data-attribute=value] to select elements with a specific attribute and value.

You can also use CSS pseudo-selectors such as :first-child or :last-child to target specific elements within a container, regardless of their type or class.

In summary, CSS provides a wide range of selectors and pseudo-selectors that allow you to target elements based on various criteria, regardless of whether they are highlighted in the HTML or not.
