Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. superscript.

In MS Word, a number or text printed above the baseline is called a superscript. Superscripts are commonly used in mathematical equations, chemical formulas, and footnotes. For example, in mathematical notation, the exponent in x2x^2 is a superscript, indicating that xx is squared. To create a superscript in MS Word, you can select the text and use the keyboard shortcut "Ctrl + Shift + =" or choose the superscript option from the Font menu in the toolbar. This formatting tool enhances the presentation of text, making it clearer and more professional in documents.
