Solution

The correct option is C Both ROM and RAM

The primary memory of a personal computer consists of Both ROM and RAM.

Primary Memory. ... This includes several types of memory, such as the processor cache and system ROM. However, in most cases, primary memory refers to system RAM. RAM, or random access memory, consists of one or more memory modules that temporarily store data while a computer is running.

ROM (Read Only Memory) and RAM make up the primary memory.Although one is volatile and the other contains non volatile firmware, the similarity is in that they are both directly accessed by the CPU. ROM is NOT secondary/Auxilary/external storage.
