Correct answer: A
Assertion A is correct because ROM (Read-Only Memory) is a type of non-volatile memory. Reason R is also correct as it accurately defines the property of non-volatility, which means data persists without power. Since Reason R provides the definition that makes Assertion A true, it is the correct explanation for Assertion A.
