If cells, rows or columns are deleted from somewhere in between the table then the

blank space is filled with the next cells, rows or columns.
For example, if we delete a cell then the cells to its right or below occupy its place as

we select the option of Shift cells left or Shift cells up . If a row is deleted then the row
below it takes its place.
