What memory allocation issue occurs when there is sufficient total free memory space across the system, but it is split into tiny non-contiguous blocks that cannot accommodate a new request?

External fragmentation leaves memory broken into tiny segments scattered between active processes, preventing continuous allocations for larger tasks.
Explanation:
Context switching is the mechanical process of storing and restoring the execution state (context) of a CPU core so that execution can resume from the same point later.
