Correct answer: (C) It will erase the previous content — Entering data erases the previous content, so that is the answer.
Explanation
★Entering data erases the previous content, so that is the answer.
★Each memory location can hold only one value at a time.
★When new data is written in, it takes the place of the old.
★So the previous content is erased and replaced.
★The write does not add to it or change the address.
★So the answer is that it will erase the previous content.
