B
=B1+25
C

D

Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Unlike relative references, absolute references do not change when copied or filled. You can use an absolute reference to keep a row and/or column constant.

Detailed explanation-2: -By default when you copy (or cut) and paste in Excel, everything in the source cell or range-data, formatting, formulas, validation, comments-is pasted to the destination cell(s). This is what happens when you press CTRL+V to paste.

Detailed explanation-3: -To paste the formula only, iIn the Clipboard group of the Home tab, click Paste, click Paste Special, and then click Formulas. Note: You can paste only the formula results. In the Clipboard group of the Home tab, click Paste, click Paste Special, and then click Values.

Detailed explanation-4: -A formula that contains a relative cell reference changes as you copy it from one cell to another. For example, if you copy the formula =A2+B2 from cell C2 to C3, the formula references in C3 adjust downward by one row and become =A3+B3.
