Blockchain is a distributed database of immutable records called blocks, which are secured using cryptography. There are a previous hash, transaction details, nonce, and target hash value. Financial institutions were the first to pay notice to it, as it was in simple words a new payment system.
Block is a place in a blockchain where data is stored. In the case of cryptocurrency blockchains, the data stored in a block are transactions. These blocks are chained together by adding the previous block's hash to the next block's header. It keeps the order of the blocks intact and makes the data in the blocks immutable.
A block is like a record of the transaction. Each time a block is verified, it gets recorded in chronological order in the main Blockchain. Once the data is recorded, it cannot be modified.
Blocks are data structures within the blockchain database, where transaction data in a cryptocurrency blockchain are permanently recorded. A block records some or all of the most recent transactions not yet validated by the network. Once the data are validated, the block is closed. Then, a new block is created for new transactions to be entered into and validated.
A block is thus a permanent store of records that, once written, cannot be altered or removed...
Blocks and blockchains are not used solely by cryptocurrencies. They also have many other uses...

In Blockchain technology, blocks are the fundamental units that make up the chain. Each block contains a list of transactions, cryptographic hashes of the previous block, and a unique identifier called a nonce. The nonce is used to create a valid hash for the block, ensuring its integrity and linking it securely to the previous block. As new transactions occur, they are added to a new block, which is then appended to the existing chain, forming a chronological and immutable ledger of all transactions. This structure makes Blockchain technology secure and transparent.@Rubee Singh
Blocks are Data objects which are part of the chain. it contains information related to transactions, timestamp, mining difficulty etc. Blocks are interlinked as in block2 knows about block1 and so on. Changing any block requires a change in all blocks following it since they are interlinked. Thats what provides security to the blockchain.
Meher Ali Blocks are object in a blockchain where data are stored. in case of cryptocurrency blockchains, the data stored in a block are transactions.these blocks are chained together by adding the previous blocks hash to the ne@xt blocks header.
