When you copy or cut a selection
to the clipboard, it replaces
whatever is currently on the
clipboard.
When you move a selection, you
remove or cut it from its original
location and paste it into another
location.
When you paste an item into a
document from the clipboard, the
item also remains on the
clipboard unless you replace it.
So you can continue to paste the
same item from the clipboard to
multiple locations in your
document.
