A Correct answer
Explanation

Ctrl, Shift and Alt are called modifier keys because they modify the action of other keys when pressed in combination. For example, Ctrl+C copies text, Shift+ capitalizes letters, and Alt+F often opens the File menu. They do not produce characters on their own but change how other keys function.
