Which of the following describes the operational concept of a 'Virtual Memory'?
A. A cloud-based storage system that bypasses the local operating system.
B. An extremely large main memory array made of high-speed SRAM.
C. An illusion of an extremely large main memory achieved by using a part of secondary storage.
D. A dedicated memory chip installed exclusively inside advanced graphics cards.
Answer: Option C
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
Virtual memory is a memory management technique that uses secondary storage (like an HDD or SSD) to simulate additional RAM, allowing programs to run even if they exceed physical memory capacity.
Explanation:
A memory map defines the layout of physical memory, including the address ranges assigned to different types of memory (RAM, ROM, I/O devices) in a system.
Explanation:
Bits and bytes with SI prefixes (kilo, mega, giga) are all valid units. However, in computing, binary multiples are more common for memory capacities.
