Answer» RIGHT CHOICE is (c) more than ONE process resides in the memory

The best I can explain: In a multiprogramming environment more than one process resides in the memory. Whenever a CPU is available, one process amongst all present in memory gets the CPU for execution. Multiprogramming increases CPU UTILIZATION.
