Google Analytics Question?

Google Analytics Question?

I recently completed a video training by Kyle on Google Analytics and almost the first screen showed the "UA- "tag which is required for AIOSEO. (UA = Universal Analytics)

However, the training was dated around 2014 and it seems that Google Analytics has had more development so now they offer a "G-" tag. (I think this means a Global site tag)

My question is. Is the G-tag something that replaces the UA tag, because I cannot find this UA tag in my Google account.

Ready to put this into action?

And do you have to add that tag to every page, or just the home page header?

There is also a section called Data Streams on the right of the screen; All, IoS, Android, Web

Do I have to add my domain in each of those data streams?

Finally, does anyone have a link to a newer guide for Google Analytics 2020 or newer, or is developing a training? The Google Help gives so much depth that I am being overwhelmed.

Thank you so much.
