When you register a domain, it gives you sole ownership and rights to the name of your site.
A web hosting normally refers to the web server.

Webhosting: A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to make their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own or lease for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center.

Domain: A domain name uniquely identifies a website. Typing a domain name into our browser allows you to visit that site.One unique domain name can be used as a company's web address and for its email addresses. in short name of website.

Domain is just a name that you register with the domain registrar and web hosting is the space where you kept all your files. So both of them are mandatory to get website live.

Domain is the name of website and hosting is place where we save data.

Web hosting is the provision of space on Internet servers for storing web pages, content and databases. These can then be accessed by others via the Internet.

A text name (e.g. mydomain.com) which provides a more humanly memorable name to stand in for a numeric IP address.

When setting up your first website it's not uncommon to get confused between domain name registration and web hosting.
