The term used to describe the practice of dividing programs into segments during the second generation was originally called roll in/roll out. However, this was later replaced with the term overlays, which refers to the technique of loading portions of a program into memory only when they are needed, and swapping them out when they are no longer needed. Therefore, the correct answer is D (overlays).
