Detailed explanation-1: -Hint:Our machine contains both RAM, which stands for random access memory, and ROM, which stands for read-only memory. RAM is a volatile memory that holds the files we’re operating on temporarily. The ROM is a non-volatile memory that holds our computer’s instructions indefinitely.
Detailed explanation-2: -ROM (Read Only Memory) and RAM make up the primary memory. Although one is volatile and the other contains non volatile firmware, the similarity is in that they are both directly accessed by the CPU. ROM is NOT secondary/Auxilary/external storage.
Detailed explanation-3: -There are two types of memory: RAM (Random Access Memory) which can read and write data, and ROM (Read Only Memory) which mainly stores programs as read-only data.
