Explanation:

• Question 9: When a computer boots, it first powers on. The CPU (Central Processing Unit) then starts working. The ROM (Read - Only Memory) contains the BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) which initializes hardware components. RAM (Random - Access Memory) is used for temporary data storage during the boot. After hardware initialization (which includes checking and setting up devices like the hard drive), the operating system is loaded.
• Question 10: An output device is designed to take information out of the computer. For example, a monitor displays visual information from the computer, and a printer prints text or images from the computer. An input device (e.g., keyboard, mouse) sends information into the computer. A storage device (e.g., hard drive, USB drive) stores data for the computer. A memory device (e.g., RAM) is used for temporary data storage during the computer's operation.
