Question

In MS Word 365, what happens when you select text and then press the ‘Backspace’ key?

A.

The text is moved to the end of the document

B.

The text is formatted with a bold style

C.

The text is copied to the clipboard

D.

The text is deleted to the left of the cursor

Correct option is D

In Microsoft Word 365, when you select text and press the Backspace key, the selected text is deleted to the left of the cursor. This action removes the highlighted text from the document completely.

  • The Backspace key removes text or characters to the left of the cursor and does not move text or copy it. It simply deletes it.

Other Options:

  • Ctrl + X: This would cut the selected text and copy it to the clipboard.
  • Ctrl + C: This would copy the selected text to the clipboard.
  • Ctrl + B: This would apply bold formatting to the selected text, but it does not delete it.
