Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Flash memory retains information even when the power is turned off, making it non-volatile, which contradicts choices A and C. Unlike RAM, it does not require the information to be regularly rewritten to prevent loss, which eliminates choice D. However, due to physical wear on the memory cells, there is a limit to how many times information can be written to flash memory, making choice B correct.
