7. Which type of memory holds the program to start up the computer?
RAM
ROM
Cache
Static
Correct Answer :
ROM
Solution
Read-Only Memory (ROM) stores the firmware or BIOS (Basic Input/Output System), which contains the essential program needed to start up the computer. Since ROM is non-volatile, it retains this data even when the computer is turned off, ensuring the boot process is always available.
