When you type the wrong character, you can press the ____ key to erase all the characters back to and including the one that is incorrect.
A
backspace
B
delete
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Backspace ( ← Backspace ) is the keyboard key that originally pushed the typewriter carriage one position backwards and in modern computer systems moves the display cursor one position backwards, deletes the character at that position, and shifts back the text after that position by one position.

Detailed explanation-2: -Detailed Solution. When you press the Backspace (Windows) or delete key (macOS), it removes text to the left of the cursor. If you need to remove text to the right of the cursor, press the Delete key. The Backspace key has one function: delete text to the left of the cursor.

Detailed explanation-3: -The correct answer is Backspace.

Detailed explanation-4: -The Delete key removes characters to the right of the cursor, whereas the Backspace key deletes to the left.

Detailed explanation-5: -To correct an error immediately after it is typed, tap the BACKSPACE key (located at the top righthand side of the main keyboard). Tapping BACKSPACE “erases” mistakes one character at a time to the left of the insertion point.
