Spreadsheets: Working With Cells Quiz #2

The statement "You can edit your cell content" is true because in most software applications, such as spreadsheets or text editors, users are allowed to modify the content within cells. This allows for customization and updating of data as needed.

Autofill is a feature that enables users to automatically populate cells in a spreadsheet with data based on a pattern or existing data. This saves time and effort by eliminating the need to manually enter repetitive information. Therefore, the statement "Autofill allows you to automatically fill in information into a spreadsheet" is true.

The statement is true because the clear command in Excel allows you to remove any formatting, comments, and contents from a cell. This can be useful when you want to start fresh with a cell or remove any unwanted data or formatting.

The bold outline around a cell indicates that the cell is active. This means that it is currently selected or being used by the user. The bold outline helps to visually distinguish the active cell from other cells, making it easier for the user to identify which cell they are currently working with.

The auto fill tool allows you to enter information by clicking and dragging across the cells either for columns or rows. This means that you can easily fill a series or pattern of data in a selected range of cells by simply dragging the fill handle across the desired cells. This saves time and effort when entering repetitive data in a spreadsheet.

The copy, cut, and paste feature in Excel works exactly like the copy, cut, and paste feature in Microsoft Word or Power Point. This means that you can use the same keyboard shortcuts or menu options to copy or cut data from one cell or range of cells, and then paste it into another location within the Excel spreadsheet. The copied or cut data will be stored in the clipboard temporarily until you paste it elsewhere. This feature allows for easy manipulation and organization of data within Excel, just like in Word or Power Point.

The correct answer is "mouse" because the video states that the most common method for selecting cells is to use the mouse. This implies that using the mouse is the preferred and widely used method for selecting cells. The keyboard may have other functions or shortcuts related to cell selection, but the video specifically mentions the mouse as the most common method.

To select the entire row or column, you click on the column heading or row heading. This is because the column heading represents the entire column and the row heading represents the entire row. By clicking on either of them, you can select the entire row or column in a spreadsheet or table.

The clear command is found in the Home command tab. This tab typically contains commands related to formatting, editing, and manipulating the content of a document. The clear command is commonly used to remove formatting, such as bold or italics, from selected text.

The Clipboard is the special feature that allows you to paste things out of order into a spreadsheet. It acts as a temporary storage area where you can copy or cut data from one location and then paste it into another location. By using the Control + V key command, you can paste the contents of the Clipboard into a spreadsheet, regardless of the order in which they were copied or cut. This feature is useful when you need to rearrange or reorganize data within a spreadsheet.
