Final answer:

Creating multiple names or aliases for a variable or pointers does not cause memory overhead.

Step-by-step explanation:

When creating multiple groups of answer choices names or aliases for a variable, pointers to a variable, or pointers to a pointer to a variable, it does not cause any memory overhead. The memory allocation is determined by the size of the data being stored, not the number of names or aliases associated with it.
