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.
