In MS Word, a master document contains ______ to its subdocuments.

Correct answer: Links. A master document holds links to its subdocuments, which remain separate files.

• Placeholders: Placeholders are reserved positions in templates and slides.
• Files: The subdocuments are separate files that the master document links to; it does not contain them.
• Header & Footer: A header and footer are repeated page areas, not part of the master document structure.
