(C) It loses its contents on the failure of the power supply. is the correct option.

• Volatile memory is a kind of memory that maintains its data just while the device is powered. If the power is interrupted for any motive, the data is lost.
• Volatile memory is used largely in computers varying from servers to laptops as well as in other appliances, such as printers, LCD displays, routers, cell phones, wearables and medical devices.
• In a computer, volatile memory is generally used for the system's random access memory (RAM), both the main memory and the processor's L1, L2 and L3 stores. It is differentiated from nonvolatile storage such as solid-state drives (SSDs), hard disk drives (HDDs) or visual disks by the existence that nonvolatile devices maintain their data even when their power is cut off.
