Which type of memory is used in a microprocessor to store temporary data during the execution of instructions ?
Answer: B
The memory used for temporary data during execution is RAM.
Random access memory is read-write and volatile, so programs keep their working data and variables there while they run, and it is lost when power is off.
ROM is read-only and holds fixed programs such as firmware. A hard disk is slow secondary storage for long-term data. Cache memory also holds temporary data, but it is a small, fast copy of part of RAM; the general working memory is RAM.
