It does not contain any HTML code either. It is a best practice but not mandatory for developers to not have any communications with the view directly, models should only contain a POCO ( Plain Old CLR Objects ) classes. All processing logic and communication with the view should be handled by another layer called Viewmodels. Models are also refers as objects that are used to implement conceptual logic for the application.

Classes in C# Explained

C# Class Explained A class is nothing but an encapsulation of properties and methods that are used to represent a real-time entity, as explained by Guru99 .
