Excel and Word can be integrated. You can have some of the spreadsheet appear as a table in Word. If you set a link between them, then when Excel updates, so will the Word document. Word does have the facilities to do its own calcuations in tables, but they are limited and so Excel is better. So if you want the figures in a Word document and to keep them up to date as they change in the Excel document, then a link is the way to do it. You would copy the data you want in Excel, and then do a Paste Link in the Word document.
Word normally hosts data from Excel. It can display charts that are linked from Excel and will show data from Excel in tables in Word. A Paste Link can be set up, so that if the data changed in the Excel document, it will also change in the Word document.

If you do a regular copy and paste, then the chart in the Word document will not change if the data in the Excel spreadsheet does. If you want it to always represent the data as it is the Excel document when it is changed, then you need to link the chart in the Word document to the spreadsheet. You can do it using the Paste Link facility.
The benefit of linking a chart from an Excel worksheet to a Word document is that the chart data will always be current. Excel is spreadsheet software from Microsoft.
It is still an Excel spreadsheet. The workbook does not change, just because it is linked to another document to form a compound document.
