Sorry I should have elaborated. Using multiple <p></p> tags for each paragraph is not normal practice anymore. I was just trying to explain the original function of the <p> tag.

No, you don't have to. It's just like indenting a paragraph in a paper. You only have to do it once per section of text, if that makes sense (except, of course, this time you have to mark the end of the paragraph as well as the beginning, where a normal paragraph in a paper you would just indent).

No, you can use a single paragraph tag for multiple sentences. The <p> tag is meant to help you organize paragraphs. Multiple <p></p> tags will automatically create a line break after each closing tag.

In <p> tag, p stangs for Paragraph, So if you intend put a paragraph in your web page, just put <p> tag before the Paragraph starting and end it with closing </p> tag. Also you can apply BOLD <b>, ITALIC <i> etc to that Paragraph.
