The ROM BIOS chip stores permanent instructions. ROM means read-only memory. BIOS means basic input/output system, meaning the very basic instructions needed to power up the computer. From there, the operating system loads.

List of instructions (and values that's needed) for your computer.

The CPU (Central Processing Unit) is needed because it is the main part of the computer where all the calculating and control activity is done. Program instructions are decoded and executed by the CPU, data is manipulated in the CPU. Without it, the computer will not operate at all.A Processor or CPU is essentially the computer's judgment and logical part of the brain. It performs the basic arithmetical, logical, and input/output operations of the system.The CPU is the part of every computer that actually does all the work, all the other parts of the computer are only there to support the CPU's needs as it does that work.

To compute, or calculate. That was their original intention anyways, since they were first built for gigantic mathematical equations or scientific research. Of course, now we have many, many more uses for them.
Memory resident instructions are instructions that remain in the memory while the computer is running. Nonresident instructions remain on the storage medium until they are needed.
The chip which holds software that is used to start the computer is the BIOS. The type of chip may be ROM, EEPROM, or NVRAM.
ROM (read-only memory) chips are installed on a computer's motherboard. The model of the board usually determines the type of ROM needed to control a computer's boot routine. ROM is often called "nonvolatile memory," meaning that an electrical current is not needed to maintain the prerecorded data instructions on the chip. The instructions cannot be overwritten, and only special equipment can be used to rewrite or erase the data
Yes.
