What is the condition called when two processes keep waiting for the same locked resources and neither can proceed?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Deadlock

The governing concept is deadlock in operating-system resource management. A deadlock occurs when processes remain blocked because each is waiting for a resource held by another, or because required locked resources cannot be released. Since neither process can obtain what it needs, both wait indefinitely unless the system intervenes. Option C is correct. Fragmentation concerns divided storage, restoration recovers data, and compression reduces size; none describes circular resource waiting.
