- 2. ASCII is an acronym for American Standard Code for Intelligent Information

A1 and 2 only
B1 and 3 only ✓ Correct
C2 and 3 only
D1, 2 and 3
Correct answer: (B) 1 and 3 only — Statements 1 and 3 are true, so the answer is 1 and 3.
Explanation
★Statements 1 and 3 are true, so the answer is 1 and 3.
★ROM is non-volatile, so its stored information survives when the computer is switched off, making statement 1 true.
★A laptop keeps all its components in a single portable unit, making statement 3 true.
★ASCII does stand for a standard code for information interchange.
★But it stands for American Standard Code for Information Interchange, not Intelligent Information.
★So statement 2 is false, leaving 1 and 3 true.
