Question
What is the key characteristic of ROM (Read Only Memory)?
Correct Answer
Option C is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
ROM is defined as a permanent form of storage that stays active regardless of power supply. It does not allow data stored on them to be modified. This makes it non-volatile and permanent, contrasting with volatile RAM.
Hint
Think about whether the data in this memory is retained after the computer is powered off.
