Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
which of these statements are correct for DRAM?
A
DRAM is a memory chip that depends upon an applied voltage to keep the stored data
B
DRAM stands for Dynamic RAM
C
DRAM is as fast as a CPU
D
DRAM is the most expensive form of RAM
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Detailed Solution. DRAM: Dynamic Random Access Memory: It is Dynamic, i.e. it must be refreshed periodically. DRAM is Volatile, i.e. it loses data when the power is removed.

Detailed explanation-2: -Dynamic random access memory is the most commonly used form of RAM. DRAM is called dynamic (or active), because it must be refreshed all the time or it will lose the data which it is supposed to be storing. Because it loses data when power is removed, DRAM is called volatile.

Detailed explanation-3: -DRAM stands for “dynamic random access memory, ‘’ and it’s a specific type of RAM (random access memory).

Detailed explanation-4: -A DRAM storage cell is dynamic, meaning that it needs to be refreshed or given a new electronic charge every few milliseconds to compensate for charge leaks from the capacitor.
