Getting data from a cell located in a different sheet is called ________ A. Accessing B. Referencing C. Updating D. Functioning

Accessing
Referencing
Updating
Functioning

The correct answer is: B. Referencing

To reference a cell in a different sheet, you need to use the sheet name and the cell address. For example, if you want to reference cell A1 in Sheet2, you would use the following formula:

=Sheet2!A1

You can also use relative references and absolute references when referencing cells in different sheets. Relative references change when you copy a formula to a different cell, while absolute references do not.

Here is a brief explanation of each option:

  • A. Accessing – This is not the correct answer because accessing a cell does not necessarily mean that you are referencing it. For example, you can access a cell by clicking on it, but you are not referencing it unless you use its address in a formula.
  • B. Referencing – This is the correct answer because referencing a cell means using its address in a formula.
  • C. Updating – This is not the correct answer because updating a cell does not necessarily mean that you are referencing it. For example, you can update a cell by typing a new value into it, but you are not referencing it unless you use its address in a formula.
  • D. Functioning – This is not the correct answer because functioning is not a term that is used in Excel.
