A data analyst for a media company needs to determine the most popular movie genre.

The action that must be done to the Genre column before this task can be completed is delimit. Delimit is a process of separating or splitting a string of text into multiple parts based on a delimiter, which is a character or a sequence of characters that marks the boundary between the parts. For example, a comma (,) or a semicolon (;) can be used as a delimiter. In this case, the Genre column contains multiple genres for each movie, separated by commas. To determine the most popular movie genre, the data analyst needs to delimit the Genre column by commas, so that each genre can be counted and compared separately. The other options are not relevant for this task, as they are related to combining or joining strings or tables, not separating them. Append is a process of adding or attaching one string or table to the end of another string or table. Merge is a process of combining or joining two or more tables into one table based on a common column or key. Concatenate is a process of joining or linking two or more strings together into one string. Reference: [How to Split Text in Excel - Exceljet]
