Correct answer: It can assign more memory from the real computer to the virtual machine.

Explanation: The hypervisor manages host resources and can allocate additional host RAM (or use ballooning, memory overcommit, or swap) to a VM if needed. It cannot create physical memory modules; shutting down or replacing the VM are possible administrative actions but not the typical method to satisfy a VM's memory demand.
