ftp is used for transferring files from one machine to another.

Mosaic produce software, Netscape for example (Or is it the other
way around?) which is used to access the world wide web.

Mosaic and Netscape are two different World Wide Web browsers from two 
different sources.  Mosaic is from the NCSA.  I don't remember who 
produces Netscape.

I think the frame of reference is that those writers who produced MOSAIC 
for a government-sponsored project later resigned and went on to 
write NETSCAPE
