PROM
B
RAM
C
ROM
D
CD
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -OTP (one time programmable) memory is a special type of non-volatile memory (NVM) that permits data to be written to memory only once. Once the memory has been programmed, it retains its value upon loss of power (i.e., is non-volatile).

Detailed explanation-2: -PROM or programmable ROM (programmable read-only memory) is a computer memory chip that can be programmed once after it is created. Once the PROM is programmed, the information written is permanent and cannot be erased or deleted.

Detailed explanation-3: -PROM (Programmable Read-Only Memory) is a type of ROM that is written only once.

Detailed explanation-4: -PROM is a written type of ROM. This memory is written only once by the user and electrically programmed at that time. EPROM is a type of ROM that can be written and read optically.

Detailed explanation-5: -Read-only memory (ROM) is a type of non-volatile memory used in computers and other electronic devices. Data stored in ROM cannot be electronically modified after the manufacture of the memory device.
