The US Navy and Marine Corps are both parts of the US Navy. Then there's shore establishments, HQ's and Operating units if I'm correct. If you want a more simple answer- The Navy, Navy Reserve, Marine Corps Reserve, and the Marine Corps.
The Marine Corps has always been under the Department of the Navy, from its beginning until today. The Navy and Marine Corps are 2 separate entities within the Department of the Navy, and each have their own senior Commander who oversees each branch. For the Navy, it's the Chief of Naval Operations, the Marines it's the Commandant of the Marine Corps. Both officers report directly to the Secretary of the Navy, who in turn reports to the Secretary of Defense, and then the President.
