Random access memory (RAM) is memory that can be written to easily (which usually means by the device where the memory's installed). "Random access" means any part of the memory can be got at immediately.
RAM needs to be supplied with power to keep what's in it. ROM (Read Only Memory) doesn't, but writing to it is more difficult - you usually need a separate writer.
