What can I use it on?
The good thing about the Office 365 subscription is that it’s one payment that covers whichever device on whichever platform you want to use it on.
The office now has a presence on every major platform. There are desktop apps for Windows and Mac, there are mobile apps for iOS and Android as well as Windows Phone.
We also now have the touch office apps that are available on Windows 10 which will, in some cases (like on 10+inch devices), require Office 365. Likewise, to get full functionality out of the Android and iOS Office Mobile apps you’ll need a subscription.
What is the difference between Office 365 and Office 2016?
Microsoft Office 2016 is a suite of Office applications that generally includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint and OneNote.
Different versions of the suite include additional Office applications such as Outlook, Publisher, and Access. Microsoft offers a number of different Office 2016 editions, such as Home and Student, Home and Business, and Professional. The applications Microsoft includes in each edition of Office 2016 vary depending on the suite.
In contrast, Office 365 is a subscription service with a huge variety of plans available. Some of these plans are essentially identical to the Office 2016 suites, but subscribers pay a monthly or an annual fee as opposed to purchasing the software license outright. Some Office 365 subscriptions are aimed at consumers or professionals and feature the Office applications, but others are intended for IT departments and feature server-side applications such as Microsoft Exchange or SharePoint Online

How To Access My Copy File?
If you open an Excel file using the OPEN AS COPY option, then a new file is created and saved in the same directory of the original file.
So if you have a file, say test.xls in D drive.
Then if you open the file as copy, then Excel creates a file in the D drive with the name Copy(1) of test.xls.
You can access this file through the path D:/Copy(1) of test.xls.
You can always rename and copy your file somewhere else but by default, Excel saves the copy of the file in the same drive.
Also, Excel duplicates the original file and whatever is in the original file, it is copied including formats, formulas, and other functionalities.
What are Provider-hosted apps?
Provider-hosted apps for SharePoint include components that are deployed and hosted outside the SharePoint farm.
They are installed to the host web, but their remote components are hosted on another server. i.e. App web for provider-hosted apps is completely a different server (provider).
What’s the benefit of using a hybrid type over the other migration types?
A hybrid deployment offers organizations the ability to extend the feature-rich experience and administrative control they have with their existing on-premises Microsoft Exchange organization to the cloud. A hybrid deployment provides the seamless look and feel of a single Exchange organization between an on-premises Exchange Server 2013 organization and Exchange Online in Microsoft Office 365. In addition, a hybrid deployment can serve as an intermediate step to move completely to an Exchange Online organization.
