Answer 2

Correct Answer:

The incorrect statement is C. ROM loses its data when you turn off the computer.

ROM does not loses its data when you turn off the computer because ROM is a non-volatile memory which keeps its data regardless the computer is on or off. RAM is a volatile memory which loses its data when you turn off the computer.

Explanation:

• Cache memory is a small part of a memory which stores a small part of about everything in its memory so that when a person uses a computer then cache memory will locate the required file and show it on the screen, reducing the tame taken and increasing the speed.
• A storage device is a hardware component that writes data to and reads from a storage medium. Storage devices are used to store data like photos, videos, documents, softwares, etc.
• Hard disks can be divided into one or more logical disks called partitions which can be seen inside the my computer icon where you can see local disk C, local disk D, local disk E and so on depending upon the number of partitions and storage space in the hark disk.

Hence, C is the incorrect statement.
