Which type of web pages are accessible via elements from everywhere in the site?

• A. Primary/global navigation
• B. Breadcrumbs
• C. Site map
• D. Local navigation

Answer: (A)

Global navigation is the way to reach key pages from anywhere on the site. It’s typically in the header and repeated on every page, so users can jump to main sections no matter where they are. This consistency across the whole site is what makes it accessible from everywhere.

Breadcrumbs show the path you took to arrive at the current page, helping you backtrack, but they don’t provide a universal menu to jump to any part of the site. A site map is a full index of pages, useful for planning or discovery, but it isn’t presented on every page for quick access. Local navigation, meanwhile, is specific to a section and doesn’t offer global access to other sections.

So the type that remains accessible from anywhere is the global navigation.
