Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Random Access Memory is volatile. That means data is retained in RAM as long as the computer is on, but it is lost when the computer is turned off. When the computer is rebooted, the OS and other files are reloaded into RAM, usually from an HDD or SSD.

Detailed explanation-2: -Computer random access memory (RAM) is one of the most important components in determining your system’s performance. RAM gives applications a place to store and access data on a short-term basis. It stores the information your computer is actively using so that it can be accessed quickly.

Detailed explanation-3: -Random-access memory (RAM; /ræm/) is a form of computer memory that can be read and changed in any order, typically used to store working data and machine code.

Detailed explanation-4: -RAM is short for random access memory. It’s called random access because the data can be quickly read and modified in any order. Compare this with older storage media like CD-RWs, where data is accessed in a fixed sequence that’s slower.

Detailed explanation-5: -RAM is volatile memory used to hold instructions and data of currently running programs. It loses integrity after loss of power.
