How to know http response end?

When we enter a url and send it to http server from browser, we get the response from server sometimes a request with multi http response for one url , is there a way I can know which http response package is the final one?

I use python twisted to see the response header and I can't figure out the difference of first header and final header.

A HTTP response consists of headers followed by a message body.

The HTTP headers must all end with a <CR><LF> newline. The headers are followed by an empty line and then the HTTP body data.

The Content-Length: headers should specify the size of the message body in bytes so that the HTTP user-agent (or client) such as a browser knows how many bytes to read for body of the HTTP resource.
