Which statement is true about Text Area vs Text?

• A. Text Area stores numeric data.
• B. Text Area is for a single line; Text is for multiple lines.
• C. Text Area is for multiple lines; Text is for a single line.
• D. Text Area is deprecated.

Answer: (C)

Text input types differentiate how user content is captured: one is meant for a single line, the other for multiple lines. Text is designed for a single-line entry, such as a name or code, while Text Area is built for multi-line input, allowing line breaks and longer descriptions. That makes the statement about Text Area being for multiple lines and Text being for a single line the correct one. These fields aren’t about numeric data; they store text, and you can include numbers as characters, but the key distinction is line structure, not the kind of characters. Also, Text Area isn’t deprecated and remains supported for multi-line input.
