What happens to text when you use the CONCATENATE function?

When you use the CONCATENATE function, the text from the specified cells is combined into one cell. This function takes multiple text strings as input—these can be text from different cells, literal text, or characters—and merges them into a single continuous string of text. The result appears in the cell where the CONCATENATE function is applied, effectively bringing together information from multiple sources into a cohesive whole.

The function does not alter the original cells, so they're simply used as the source for the text being concatenated. Therefore, option B accurately describes the outcome of using the CONCATENATE function.
