Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Swapping is the operating system process that moves data between main memory and disk storage. When RAM fills up, inactive pages are swapped out to the disk to free space for active processes. Interruption signals CPU events, while termination ends execution, making Swapping the correct term for memory-to-disk transfer.
