In a DMA while the data is transferred between the memory and the device, if it is stopped or interrupted by any other device like CPU, it would result into a Data loss, since DMA doesnt have a program counter unlike CPU which stores it current position. In CPU if it is interrupted, it suspends it s operation without any data loss. Hence DMA has a higher priority than CPU.

ransom access memory which is permenant
The time required by a processor to access data or to write data from and to memory chip is referred as access time.

RAM (Random-access memory)
The fastest type of memory on a computer is the registers that form the execution model of the processor.
Random Access Memory (RAM) and Processor Controls PC Software.
cache memory
Memory to memory access is certainly possible in the 8086/8088 microprocessor. Look at the repeated string copy instructions.
It all depends on the architecture that the processor is built on. If it is 32 bit architecture, 2^32 it will be 4gb. If it is a 64bit processor it can access 2^64 memory locations, or 16gb.
32 bit processor can access 4294967296 bit memory adderss.
The processor is considered the "brain" of a computer. Without it the computer will not be able to boot up windows. The processor is the central focus of the computer. It has three main tasks: 1. Receiving input (including memory access) 2. Giving ouput (including memory access) 3. And performing mathematical and logical calculations
