The correct answer is A single box in a spreadsheet

Key Points

  • A cell is the intersection of a row and a column in a spreadsheet (e.g., MS Excel).
  • Each cell is uniquely identified by its address, which is a combination of the column letter and row number (e.g., A1, B2).
  • Cells are the basic building blocks of spreadsheets and are used to store data like numbers, text, or formulas.
  • You can format cells with colors, borders, and different font styles to enhance the readability of the spreadsheet.

Additional Information

  • A group of rows: Rows are horizontal lines of data in a spreadsheet and are identified by numbers (1, 2, 3, etc.). A group of rows is not the same as a cell; it is a collection of multiple rows.
  • A page in the workbook: A workbook in MS Excel can contain multiple sheets (pages). Each sheet holds rows and columns but is not a single cell.
  • A chart: A chart in MS Excel is a graphical representation of data within a worksheet. It is used for data visualization and is not related to a cell.
