RAM is a ........ memory.
Verified Answer
A. (a) external
B. (b) auxiliary
C. (c) internal
D. (d) main
E. (e) None of these
Explanation:
Option (c) internal is the correct answer. RAM (Random Access Memory) is physically located inside the computer system, typically on the motherboard, and is directly accessible by the CPU. This makes it an 'internal' component. While RAM is also considered 'main' memory (option d), 'internal' describes its physical placement within the system unit, distinguishing it from external storage. Option (a) external refers to devices outside the main system. Option (b) auxiliary is another term for secondary storage. Therefore, (e) None of these is incorrect.
