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

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, or Read-Only Memory, is a type of non-volatile memory, which means that the data stored in it is not lost when the power is turned off. This is in contrast to volatile memory, such as RAM (Random Access Memory), where the data is lost when the power is removed. The other options are incorrect because A) is false since ROM is non-volatile, C) is false since the contents of ROM are not lost when the power is removed, and D) is false since ROM is non-volatile memory.
