The mouse allows for easy clicking and dragging to select multiple cells in a row or column, while the keyboard provides shortcuts and commands such as using the arrow keys to move between cells and holding down the Shift key to select multiple cells.

    In Excel, you have the ability to hide columns and rows in a spreadsheet. This feature allows you to temporarily remove certain columns or rows from view without deleting the data. It can be useful when you want to focus on specific data or simplify the view of your spreadsheet.

    The control key allows you to select nonadjacent rows or columns.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer

    The control key is a modifier key that, when pressed along with another key, allows for special functionality. In the context of selecting rows or columns, holding down the control key enables the user to select multiple rows or columns that are not adjacent to each other. By selecting nonadjacent rows or columns, users can perform various actions on them simultaneously, such as deleting, copying, or formatting. Therefore, the statement that the control key allows you to select nonadjacent rows or columns is true.
