A memory array comprises vertically-alternating tiers of insulative material and memory cells. The memory cells individually comprise a transistor and a capacitor. The capacitor comprises a first electrode electrically coupled to a source/drain region of the transistor. The first electrode comprises an annulus in a straight-line horizontal cross-section and a capacitor insulator radially inward of the first electrode annulus. A second electrode is radially inward of the capacitor insulator. A capacitor-electrode structure extends elevationally through the vertically-alternating tiers. Individual of the second electrodes of individual of the capacitors are electrically coupled to the elevationally-extending capacitor-electrode structure. A sense line is electrically coupled to another source/drain region of multiple of the transistors that are in different memory-cell tiers. Additional embodiments and aspects are disclosed, including methods.
