The tools to insert and delete individual cells are located in which group on the Home tab?

• A. Cells
• B. Formatting
• C. Editing
• D. Alignment

Answer: (A)

In the Home tab, commands are grouped by their purpose, and inserting or deleting a single cell is a structural worksheet action. Those tools are in the Cells group because that group specifically handles changes to the grid of cells. The other groups—Formatting (appearance), Editing (find/replace and clear), and Alignment (text positioning)—don’t contain the cell-insert/delete options. So the best fit for inserting or deleting individual cells is the Cells group.
