Answer:
Types of Memory - Volatile and Non-Volatile

Volatile Memory gets erased when there is no power supply or at the computer shutdown.
Merits are - Helps programs to load in runtime and later when not needed, memory can be cleaned and space can be created for other programs to load, faster data accessing.
Demerits are - Program/ data is lost when there is power failure.
A RAM - Random Access Memory is the best example.
Non-Volatile memory keep the data safe and has no impact of shutdown of computer. Like a hard-drive that keeps the data intact after the shutdown. Merits - Helpful in storing data.
