It creates a new user in a specified group, and asks to specify a password for that user.

It holds information about user and passwords.

Structure of .htpasswd file is :

Username:password

The password is encrypted using MD5 check sum or crypt() system function.

It is most basic validation mechanism available in Apache HTTPD server.
