A rather basic answer is that RAM means Random Access Memory. This memory is volatile, and everything is lost when the computer is closed down.
ROM means Read Only Memory. This is stable memory placed there by the manufacturer to keep the instructions needed to begin the booting up process when the computer is switched on.
