No. In modern computers, programs are not stored on a ROM chip, but on the hard drive.

Where do the instructions that computer follows come from?
The instructions that computers follow are located in programs. Programs are stored on media such as CDs, DVDs, floppies, USB drives, and hard drives. When a program is loaded, it is copied into RAM, and the CPU executes the instructions inside of the software out of RAM.

Whether java heap exist in hard disk or ram?
Your Hard Disk is where programs and data are stored for later retrieval ( excluding virtual memory) . If a program is in execution it has to be loaded in the memory (by memory I mean the RAM), So your Java Heap has to be in the RAM and cannot reside on the Hard disk.
Where would the information needed to start a computer be stored?
Most of the programs and info the CPU and computer uses to Boot are mostly from the Hard Drive. The Hard Drive is mostly where all of the instructions come from.
Where is a program temporally stored for execution?
All programs must be loaded into memory (e.g., RAM) in order to be executed. Compiled programs can be loaded directly since they consist of native machine instructions, but interpreted programs must be translated by a runtime program. E.g., Java is an interpreted language which compiles to byte code which must be interpreted by the Java Virtual Machine implementation at runtime.

What two things are stored in RAM?
It holds your loaded program's and the data to go with it :) hope I helped 😉
When you change RAM cards from a lower amount to a higher amount will changing it remove anything stored in memory in my laptop and is RAM a place where any info is actually stored?
Computer RAM is used only during operation. It's called "volatile memory", meaning that every time the computer is turned off, everything that has been stored on RAM is deleted. Computer disk is a "non volatile" storage medium, meaning that programs and data will (hopefully) be available next time you turn on the computer. RAM is necessary for normal operation of the computer. Programs and data that are essential to the immediate operations of the computer are loaded into RAM as the computer starts and when you start applications. Insufficient RAM may cause the computer to run very slow, if at all. Since nothing is stored on RAM when the computer is turned off, increasing the amount of RAM should not negatively affect any data that is currently stored on your computer.
Is the abbreviation for the place in the computer where the programs and data the computer is currently using are stored?
RAM
