- Option (c) refers to RAM, which stores temporary data.
- Option (d) refers to the CPU, which performs calculations and executes programs.
रीड ओनली मेमोरी (ROM) एक स्थायी (non-volatile) मेमोरी है, जिसमें महत्वपूर्ण निर्देश हमेशा के लिए सुरक्षित रहते हैं। इसमें BIOS जैसे फर्मवेयर होते हैं, जो कंप्यूटर को शुरू (boot) करने के लिए आवश्यक होते हैं। बिजली बंद होने पर भी ROM का डेटा सुरक्षित रहता है।
- विकल्प (a) मदरबोर्ड का कार्य बताता है।
- विकल्प (c) RAM से संबंधित है, जो अस्थायी डेटा रखता है।
- विकल्प (d) CPU का कार्य है, जो गणना और प्रोग्राम चलाता है।
Extra Fact / अतिरिक्त तथ्य:
- ROM is called non-volatile memory because it does not lose data when power is off.
- ROM को स्थायी मेमोरी कहा जाता है क्योंकि यह बिजली बंद होने पर भी डेटा नहीं खोता।
