Differentiate between cutting and copying text in a document.

Cutting text in a document involves removing the selected text from its original location and placing it in the clipboard, ready to be pasted elsewhere. This action deletes the text from its original location.

Copying text in a document involves duplicating the selected text and placing it in the clipboard, without removing it from its original location. This allows the text to be pasted in multiple locations without deleting the original text.

Cutting

- Removes the selected text from its original location.
- Places the cut text into the clipboard, making it available for pasting elsewhere.
- Leaves an empty space where the cut text was originally located.

Copying

- Duplicates the selected text, creating a copy.
- Places the copied text into the clipboard without removing it from its original location.
- The original text remains in place, while the copied text can be pasted elsewhere.
