In Microsoft Word 2016 and later versions, when text spanning multiple paragraphs is highlighted and the user presses Ctrl + C, what operation is performed?

This question was previously asked in
RRB NTPC 2025 Graduate CBT 2 Question Paper PDF (10-Jul-2026) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

Transfers the highlighted paragraphs to clipboard for duplication elsewhere

Pressing Ctrl + C on highlighted multi-paragraph text in Microsoft Word transfers the highlighted content to the clipboard for pasting elsewhere.

It does not erase the text, insert it at the document's beginning, or save the document — those are entirely different operations.

Hence, 'Transfers the highlighted paragraphs to clipboard for duplication elsewhere' is the correct answer.
