Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

RAM (Random Access Memory) is the component in a computer that holds instructions and data from software currently in use. It allows the computer to access this information quickly, facilitating smooth operation of the software. ROM (Read-Only Memory) contains firmware, not software instructions; storage (like hard drives or SSDs) holds data long-term; and "a computer" is too broad and not specific to the question's context.
