A.12.) To add some emphasis to a paragraph, add class = "lead". This will give you a larger font size, lighter weight, and a taller line-height.
Q.13.) Explain types of lists supported by Bootstrap?
A.13.) Bootstrap supports ordered lists, unordered lists, and definition lists.
Ordered lists − An ordered list is a list that falls in some sort of sequential order and is prefaced by numbers.
Unordered lists − An unordered list is a list that doesn't have any particular order and is traditionally styled with bullets. If you do not want the bullets to appear then you can remove the styling by using the class .list-unstyled. You can also place all list items on a single line using the class .list-inline.
Definition lists − In this type of list, each list item can consist of both the <dt> and the <dd> elements. <dt> stands for definition term, and like a dictionary, this is the term (or phrase) that is being defined. Subsequently, the <dd> is the definition of the <dt>.
You can make terms and descriptions in <dl> line up side-by-side using class dl-horizontal.
Q.14.) What are glyphicons?
A.14.) Glyphicons are icon fonts which you can use in your web projects. Glyphicons Halflings are not free and require licensing, however, their creator has made them available for Bootstrap projects free of cost.

<a data-toggle = "dropdown" href = "#">Dropdown trigger</a>
<ul class = "dropdown-menu" role = "menu" aria-labelledby = "dLabel">
...
</ul>
</div>
- If you need to keep links intact (which is useful if the browser is not enabling JavaScript), use the data-target attribute instead of href="#" −
<div class = "dropdown">
<a id = "dLabel" role = "button" data-toggle = "dropdown" data-target = "#" href = "/page.html">
Dropdown
<span class = "caret"></span>
</a>
<ul class = "dropdown-menu" role = "menu" aria-labelledby = "dLabel">

By adding prepended and appended content to an input field, you can add common elements to the user's input. For example, you can add the dollar symbol, the @ for a Twitter username, or anything else that might be common for your application interface.
