When you type in a URL, your browser sends a request to the closest name server. If that server has ever received a request for the same host name (within a time period set by the administrator to prevent passing old information), it will locate the information in its cache and reply. If the name server is unfamiliar with the domain name, the resolver will ask a server further up the tree. If that doesn't help that server will ask yet another, until it finds a server that knows. A server that knows the address without asking another is an authoritative server. Once the address is located, it is sent back to your browser and you get to see the related web site.
