Think to a family tree structure... the older ancestor is the html document ( to sipmplify ), called <html>.
This first 'parent' contain two different part, as <head> and <body>, considered as his 'childs'.
But each 'child' can be a 'parent' too, with 'childs contents'...
So displaying a graph of the 'family tree' from your document, can be:
<html>
/ \
<head> <body>
/ | | \ / | | \
<p><p><p><p>
/ | \/ | \/ | \/ | \

Inheritance of Cascading Stlyle Sheet consist to apply attributes defined on a parent element to its childs.
So, if you define a css rule as 'color:red;' for the <body> element, all its childs will have a 'color:red' by default, until another css rule override it...
