      Read Only Memo

    Correct Answer
    A. Read Only Memory
    Explanation
    ROM stands for Read Only Memory. It is a type of computer memory that stores data permanently and cannot be modified or erased. The data stored in ROM is non-volatile, meaning it is retained even when the computer is turned off. ROM is commonly used to store firmware, which contains the instructions necessary for the computer to boot up and start operating. Unlike Random Access Memory (RAM), which is volatile and temporary, ROM provides a stable and reliable source of data for the computer to access.

Unlike other types of memory, RAM provides fast and temporary storage that is used by the computer to perform tasks and run programs. The data stored in RAM is volatile, meaning it is erased when the computer is turned off or restarted. RAM plays a crucial role in determining the performance and speed of a computer system.
