Answer:Virtual memory

Explanation: Virtual memory is the essential part of the operating system as it provides the space for the execution of the other application. It is not a actual memory and is rather considered as the simulated memory.It works on the hard drive parts and can replicate the RAM in the hard drive space by the operating system. Virtual memory indirectly helps the RAM to increase the memory size.
