Correct answer: C. EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory)
- A. PROM (Programmable Read-Only Memory)
- B. ROM (Read-Only Memory)
- C. EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory)
- D. Cache
Explanation
EEPROM can be erased and rewritten multiple times using electrical pulses. This makes it more versatile than PROM or ROM.In conclusion, EEPROM is the only memory option among the choices that can be written again.
