Where's the CSS to make the inputs align vertically instead of in a line?

I've looked through all of main.css and can't figure out what makes the inputs align vertically. I assume it's a display property, but I can't figure out where it is.

So each input is on it's own line?

input {
  display:block;
}

That's what I thought it should be, but I can't find it anywhere in the CSS file that's included in the lesson.

display: block is correct but it was applied to the labels rather than the inputs for this project. The inputs are still inline.

line 87:

main.css 
label {
  display: block;
  margin-bottom: 8px;
}

Just to add to the answer:

if you think you know the property, you can search its possible values on-line, e.g. on http://www.w3schools.com/. Just type "display" in the search box and it will tell you all about it ;)
