Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -RAM is volatile memory used to hold instructions and data of currently running programs. It loses integrity after loss of power. RAM memory modules are installed into slots on the computer motherboard. ROM (Read-Only Memory) is nonvolatile: data stored in ROM maintains integrity after loss of power.
Detailed explanation-2: -An example of volatile memory is RAM (random access memory). When you are working on a document, it is kept in RAM. If the computer you’re using is disconnected from power, your work is lost because it was not stored in permanent (non-volatile) memory.
