  • RAM, which stands for random access memory, and ROM, which stands for read-only memory, are both present in your computer. RAM is volatile memory that temporarily stores the files you are working on. ROM is non-volatile memory that permanently stores instructions for your computer. Find out more about RAM.

Answer:

RAM, which stands for random access memory, and ROM, which stands for read-only memory, are both present in your computer. RAM is volatile memory that temporarily stores the files you are working on. ROM is non-volatile memory that permanently stores instructions for your computer.

Data retention RAM is a volatile memory which could store the data as long as the power is supplied. ROM is a non-volatile memory which could retain the data even when power is turned off.

Working type Data stored in RAM can be retrieved and altered. Data stored in ROM can only be read.

Use Used to store the data that has to be currently processed by CPU temporarily. It stores the instructions required during bootstrap of the computer.

Speed It is a high-speed memory. It is much slower than the RAM.

CPU Interaction The CPU can access the data stored on it. The CPU can not access the data stored on it unless the data is stored in RAM.

Size and Capacity Large size with higher capacity. Small size with less capacity.

Used as/in CPU Cache, Primary memory. Firmware, Micro-controllers

Accessibility The data stored is easily accessible The data stored is not as easily accessible as in RAM

Cost Costlier cheaper than RAM.

Explanation: hope it helps mark me as the brainliest hehe.
