Answer: ORG $3000 tell us that we want to load the program from the address $3000.

LDAA #$C2 tell us to load the value contained in the address present in the register C2 into the accumulator.

Step-by-step explanation:

ORG instruction in microprocessor does not have a fixed address. It tell us where to begin the execution of the program by loading into a starting address space. It does not uses fixed addressing

LDAA instruction uses indirect addressing by placing the value from the address present in the register. Here the address is contained in register C2.
