This question was previously asked in
MH SET 2025 Paper 2 Sociology Question Paper (15-Jun-2025)
The correct answer is

DNS

The Domain Name System (DNS) is a distributed, hierarchical client-server application layer service that maps human-readable domain names such as example.com to numeric IP addresses.

TELNET is a remote login protocol, TCP is a transport layer protocol that provides reliable connection-oriented delivery, and IP is a network layer protocol that provides logical addressing and routing, none of which give hosts user-friendly names.

Only DNS translates memorable names into machine addresses so that users need not remember raw numeric identifiers.

Hence, the described service is the Domain Name System.
