BBoth Statement I and Statement II are false
CStatement I is true but Statement II is false
DStatement I is false but Statement II is true
Correct answer: (A) Both Statement I and Statement II are true — Both statements are true, so the answer is that both Statement I and Statement II are true.
Explanation
★Both statements are true, so the answer is that both Statement I and Statement II are true.
★RAM allows both reading and writing of data.
★ROM, being read-only memory, can be read but not written to, so statement I is true.
★A CD-RW is rewritable and can be written to and changed many times.
★A CD-R is recordable only once, as the R indicates.
★So statement II correctly describes both discs, making it true.
★Therefore both statements are true.
