A paragraph can be made up of several lines of text, a single item, or nothing at all.

Paragraph: In a word processing document, a new paragraph is created each time the enter key on the keyboard is pressed.

The item can then be pasted elsewhere in the document (or even in another document) as long as it remains on the clipboard. Cutting takes an existing item in a document, removes it from its current location and stores it on the clipboard.

Cutting: The process of cutting is used to move text or objects in a document.

The flashing cursor should now appear in the new location and any text typed or object inserted will be placed there. To place the cursor to a new location in your document, you would move your mouse pointer to the new location and click the left mouse button once.

Cursor/ Insertion Point: The cursor (also known as the insertion point) is a flashing vertical bar on the screen that indicates where entered text or objects will be placed in the document.

When an item is copied, it is stored temporarily on the clipboard waiting to be pasted elsewhere.

Copying: The process of copying will take an existing item in a document and creates a duplicate in a new location in the document (or even in another document).

Quite often, the clipboard is cleared when another item is cut or copied or if the application is closed. The manner in which the clipboard is cleared depends on the application being used. Items will stay on the clipboard until they are deleted or erased. When an item such as text is placed on the clipboard, it can then be pasted elsewhere in the document.

Clipboard: The clipboard is a temporary holding area the computer uses for any item that has been copied or cut.
