Well, they are both types of memory that consume space and storage in the computer. So in a way, ROM is a type of RAM. Hope this helped

***Edit:

No, ROM is Read-Only Memory such as a CD-ROM, DVD, Magnetic Tape, or other form of media that is one time use only. Generally used for data storage.

RAM, or Random Access Memory, is a set of chips that fit on your motherboard used to hold programs and processes in active memory. When you open a program like Microsoft Word, it calls the executable and all necessary resources into RAM so it can actually run.

Hope this helps more.
