- This span is nested inside a label, a paragraph, and a division. - The division is assigned a background color, padding and a border. - Since the span, label, and paragraph default to a transparent background color and have no border, they "visually inherit" the background, padding, and border of the division. - Once you assign a background to an element, it no longer visually inherits the background of its parent—like this <code> element. <code> element.
