Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
When you copy data, the copy is placed on the ____
A
CLIPBOARD
B
SAVE
C
PASTE
D
ENTER
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -When you copy something, your selection is held on the Clipboard, where it remains until you copy something else or shut down your computer. This means that you can paste the same data multiple times and in different applications. The Clipboard holds only the last selection that you copied.

Detailed explanation-2: -Everything that’s stored in the Windows Clipboard is stored in system RAM. There is no “clipboard file” on the hard drive, SSD or any other form of long-term storage media. That’s why when the machine is shut down the clipboard data is lost unless the machine is placed in hibernation.

Detailed explanation-3: -Select the text or graphics you want to copy, and press Ctrl+C. Each selection appears in the Clipboard, with the latest at the top. Optionally, repeat step 2 until you’ve copied all the items you want to use.

Detailed explanation-4: -The Paste feature allows you to get a text from the clipboard and place it in the same or even another document. Hence the correct answer is Paste.

Detailed explanation-5: -While the clipboard is a handy feature, it’s also quite limited. For one thing, it can only store text for an hour before it’s automatically overwritten by new text. That means you’re out of luck if you accidentally copy another text on top of the one you meant to keep.
