Which events will bring a RUNNING process into a WAITING state? correct answers The

dup() correct answers Creates a duplicate of a given file descriptor

execv() correct answers Loads in memory the program to be executed by a given process

fork() correct answers Creates a new process

kill() correct answers Sends a signal to another process

lightweight processes correct answers Share the address space of their parent
