Hello Carolyn, There are no dumb questions.
The physical mouse depends on what kind of computer you're using. On a recent MacBook or MacBook Pro, it's the trackpad itself, on an older MacBook, MacBook Pro, PowerBook or iBook, it's the trackpad button, and on a desktop computer, of course, it's the mouse. If you have MouseKeys turned on, it's usually possible to click the mouse by using FN and the letter "i". You can also use the number 5 on the Numpad with Numpad Commander turned on. Control-click is the same thing as VO-Shift-m, but sometimes, the VO command doesn't work whereas the standard keyboard shortcut does. I usually prefer to use standard keyboard shortcuts where they exist, probably because I was using Macs long before VoiceOver appeared.
