What does URI stand for?

  1. Universal resource identifier

  2. Unresolved respiratory infection

  3. Upper respiratory tract infection

  4. Unique registry identity

The correct answer is: Upper respiratory tract infection

A URI refers to a unique string of characters used to identify and locate a specific resource or webpage on the internet. Option A, Universal Resource Identifier, is the correct expansion of the acronym and best fits the definition of a URI. Options B and D are incorrect as they refer to healthcare-related terms and not related to identification or location of resources. Option C, Upper Respiratory Tract Infection, is an incorrect definition and has no relation to internet terminology. Therefore, option C is incorrect.
