RAM, random-access memory, is called that because:
a. it is optimized for random number processing.
b. accesses are randomized to prevent clogging the control lines.
c. you can pick any two random locations and it will take the same time to access the data.
d. when power is turned off, its contents are lost and replaced by random bits.
e. none of the above.

Explanation:

The RAM is a short term storage used to maintain the information that the active applications are using and it allows that they can be accessed quickly.

Also, RAM allows to store and retrieve data in any location directly without having to access other files first which means that it takes the same amount of time to access information in different locations. According to this, the anwer is that RAM, random-access memory, is called that because you can pick any two random locations and it will take the same time to access the data.
