Which action best describes the effect of the Add Edit button on a segment, compared to a simple cut?

• A. It duplicates the segment
• B. It locks the segment to prevent edits
• C. It divides the segment in the Timeline
• D. It extends the segment to fill gaps

Answer: (C)

Add Edit creates an edit point inside a clip at the playhead, turning one segment into two separate segments on the timeline. This lets you treat the front and back portions independently, which is what you need when you want to insert something between them or apply different edits to each part. It’s not duplicating the clip, locking it, or extending it to fill gaps. So the action described is that it divides the segment in the Timeline.
