b) `data-target` : It points to the Id of the modal to open up.
c) `data-dismiss="modal"` : This causes the popup to close when clicked on close button.
d) `.modal` class identifies the contents of `<div>` as a modal.
e) `.modal-dialog` class sets the proper height and width of the dialog.
f) `.modal-content` class styles the modal.It contains header,body and footer sections.
g) `.modal-header` class denotes the header section of the modal (title and (×) button).
