In the context of the given options, "Open" refers to the action of accessing a document or file, "Menu" is a list of options or commands that can be performed on a document or file, and "Cursor" is a graphical representation of the position within a document or file.

When you copy or cut text or images, they are stored in the clipboard temporarily. To insert that content into a different location, you use the paste command. This allows you to easily transfer information between different parts of a document or between different documents.
