Is there a Sim Card slot on iPads?

I have an iPad Air that is 8 years old. It can connect to the internet when I’m away from my house. I need to know if I need a Sim Card for this to happen. If so, where is the slot?

iPad Air, 12

Do you have a WiFi Only or WiFi+Cellular model iPad? WiFi Only models do not have a SIM slot or any Cellular hardware:
