What statement is true concerning read only memory (ROM)?

AROM is non-volatile memory and the contents of ROM are lost when the power is removed.
BROM is non-volatile memory and the contents of ROM are not lost when the power is removed.
CROM is volatile memory and the contents of ROM are not lost when the power is removed.
DROM is volatile memory and the contents of ROM are lost when the power is removed.
AI Explanation

The correct answer is B) ROM is non-volatile memory and the contents of ROM are not lost when the power is removed. ROM (Read-Only Memory) is a type of computer memory that retains its stored data even when the power is turned off. This is because the data in ROM is programmed during the manufacturing process and cannot be modified or erased by the user. The contents of ROM are not affected by the removal of power, making it a non-volatile form of memory. The other options are incorrect because A) is false, as the contents of ROM are not lost when the power is removed, and C) and D) are false, as ROM is a non-volatile memory type, not a volatile one.
