Memory Organization in Computer

How is memory http://www.kynix.com/Product/Cate/40.htm... in a computer? Is it 1 bit per address so in order to get the value of an integer (32 bits) it must go through 32 addresses, get all the bits of 0's and 1's? I am a bit confused since I am reading a book on computer organization and architecture but the author does a poor job explaining thoroughly. Because what is really confusing me is when book uses examples and states 16 bit word of memory for an instruction. How is a word stored in memory? For this situation would it be 16 sequential addresses?

Not sure I follow you here with your link.

Computers as well as any digital device works on binary (ones and zeros). How memory is structured is based on how the given processor the device has is able to handle it (8, 16, 32, 64 or 128). In addition to the reading and writing Word.

Here's a bit more on how memory is setup: Main Memory (RAM) Organization and here is how the todays computers memory is setup: DDR3 SDRAM
