Correct Answer:
D. Ascending Order
Sorting data is a fundamental function in Microsoft Excel, allowing users to organize information in a meaningful order. This organization can be based on text, numbers, or dates.
- Ascending Order is the correct term for sorting data from A to Z. This means arranging text alphabetically from A to Z, numbers from smallest to largest, and dates from oldest to newest.
- Descending Order is the opposite, sorting from Z to A or largest to smallest.
- Filtering hides data that does not meet specific criteria, rather than reordering it.
- Custom Sorting allows users to define their own specific sort orders, but A-Z is a standard ascending sort.
