Descriptive Questions
1. Differentiate cut-paste and copy-paste.
Cut-Paste and Copy-Paste are basic computing essentials which allow the person to edit a
document or file easily and quickly.
There are a few differences in the two commands:
The Copy and Paste command is used when data from a document or any file is needed to
be added to another location in addition to the place from where it is being originally copied.
The second location could be either in the same document or location or in a different
document or location.
The Cut and Paste command is used when the data from a document or any file from any
location is to be moved completely to a new location and is no longer required in the original
location. The new location could be in the same document or file or in a different document
or file.
Both these commands need the data to be selected initially, which can be done by dragging
the mouse across the area to be selected.
For Copy and Paste, the mouse should be right clicked in the new location after selection of
data and the copy command is selected. After moving to the new location, the mouse is right
clicked again and the paste command is selected.
Similarly, for Cut and Paste command, the mouse should be right clicked in the new
location after selection of data and the Cut command is selected. After moving to the new
location, the mouse is right clicked again and the paste command is selected.
These commands can be chosen from the Edit Menu too on the document.
Ctrl X + Ctrl V is the shortcut command for Cut (Ctrl X) and Paste (Ctrl V).
Ctrl C + Ctrl V is the shortcut command for Copy (Ctrl C) and Paste (Ctrl V).

12. Write down steps to cut copy and paste text in a document.
One of the most basic functions you will probably use is to move or copy text. If you
move the text, deleting it from the original location and placing it somewhere else, you
are cutting and pasting text. When you make a copy of the text, leaving a copy in the
original location and placing the new copy in a different place, you are copying and
pasting text.
When you cut or copy a section of text, it is moved to the Windows Clipboard, which
holds the cut or copied sections until you are ready to paste them. Because the Clipboard
is Windows-based, you can use it in all Windows applications, not just Word.
