Explanation

When an Excel file is inserted into a Word document while preserving the connection to the original file, the data remains linked. This means any updates made in the Excel source file will reflect in the Word document. In contrast, embedding the file makes it part of the document itself, so changes in the source file do not update the inserted data.
