Answer:

Control (Ctrl) + C. Remember "C" as. The COPY command is used for just that - it copies the text or image you have selected and stores is on your virtual clipboard

Cut command = Sections of a specified file or piped data and print the result to standard output. The command cuts parts of a line by field, delimiter, byte position, and character.

Step-by-step explanation:

Think of copy command as a "duplicating tool." It is taking something and duplicating it, making an exact second version of it.

The cut command is like a "delete" key. It takes something and cuts it, or deletes it.
