Is based on the relative position of the cell that contains the formula and the cells referred to?

This phrase (not a complete sentence or even a question) is so poorly worded, I can only guess at the answer of relative cell address.

What is referencing in terms of Microsoft Excel?

Referencing is basically referring to another cell in a formula. There are 3 types of cell addressing or cell referencing mechanisms in Excel. They are relative, mixed and absolute. Relative is typing the address as it is in the cell. When the formula is copied, the reference in subsequent formula changes accordingly. With absolute and mixed referencing you are preventing the cell reference from partially or fully changing in the formula when it is copied. This is done by putting a dollar before the cell's column or row, for mixed referencing, and before both parts for absolute referencing. A1 - Relative: The cell address will change when copied in a formula. $A1 - Mixed: The cell address column will not change when copied in a formula. A$1 - Mixed: The cell address row will not change when copied in a formula. $A$1 - Absolute: The cell address will not change when copied in a formula.

Explain the difference between a relative and an abosolute cell reference How can they be distribute when looking at a spreadsheet?

A formula containing a relative cell address looks to different cells based on a relative position to the cell containing the formula. So, if you had a formula in cell B1 which included the information from relative cell address A1, that formula, when copied to another cell will always look for the information in the cell directly to it's left on the same row. Copy that formula to B2 and the formula will use the information from A2...copy the formula to T64 and the formula will use S64. A formula containing an absolute cell address will always look to the exact same cell regardless of where you copy the formula. So if the formula in B1 contained absolute cell address A1, that formula will always look to A1, whether you copy it to B2 or T64. You can also have an address which is part relative and part absolute - so a formula will always look to a specific row but different columns (if the row is absolute and the column is relative), or the same column but different rows (if the column is absolute and the row is relative). So, if you wanted to use information contained along row 2 of each column, but the formula might be on different rows in different columns, you could make the row absolute and the column relative. so the formula in A7 would use A2, the same formula in B6 would use B2, the same formula in C26 would use C2.
