b.To permanently store the operating system and user files
c.To convert AC power to DC power for the motherboard
d.To output video signals to a monitor

RAM (random access memory) is volatile memory that holds data and instructions the CPU needs quickly while programs run. Its contents are lost when power is removed, unlike permanent storage on a drive. More RAM generally lets a system run more programs simultaneously without slowing down.
