The topic to which you are referring is generally known as "semantic
markup," but since it is not in and of itself a CSS issue, it is off
topic here. If you have a specific, practical question about how a
particular piece of markup might affect its CSS styling, then that is
appropriate. Otherwise, let's not discuss the theory of semantic markup
in general.
