What is the concept of "paging" in memory management?

A Dividing physical memory into fixed-size blocks Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
B Swapping entire processes in and out of memory Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
C Creating a virtual address space for each process Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
D Allowing multiple processes to share the same memory space Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
