Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A Type 1 hypervisor (bare-metal hypervisor) can create VMs, which can run guest OSes. In other words, the guest OS is delivered in a VM environment through a hypervisor. The host OS will run on the host machine and the guest OS operates within it, which can limit file saving and other operations in the VM.

Detailed explanation-2: -A Type 1 hypervisor runs directly on a physical host machine, whereas a Type 2 hypervisor runs on top of the host’s OS. This means that unlike with Type 1 hypervisors, VMs don’t have direct access to the underlying hardware.

Detailed explanation-3: -A computer on which a hypervisor runs one or more virtual machines is called a host machine, and each virtual machine is called a guest machine. The hypervisor presents the guest operating systems with a virtual operating platform and manages the execution of the guest operating systems.
