What is a thread in c?

If process stop its execution will thread also stop or it will continue to run?
Processes do not execute, it is the threads within a process that actually execute. All processes have at least one thread of execution, the main thread. If the main thread falls from scope, the process ends, taking all threads with it. This can lead to undefined behaviour if the threads are not terminated gracefully from within the main thread before it falls from scope.
