    has the same effect as clicking on Cell1, and dragging to Cell2 so that all cells between are selected.

    has the same effect as clicking on Cell2 , and then pressing the "End" key followed by the cursor "down" key.

    Is the same as selecting cell 1, holding shift, and then pressing the "End" key followed by the cursor "down" key, therefore selecting all the continuous populated cells below Cell1
