A Correct answer
Explanation

Ctrl + Equal Sign applies subscript formatting in Microsoft Word, making text appear below the normal line (like in H2O). Subscript is commonly used for chemical formulas and mathematical expressions. Ctrl + Shift + Equal Sign would apply superscript, while Ctrl + * and Ctrl + ^ are not subscript shortcuts.
