Answer
Immutable objects cannot be altered, preventing accidental changes.
Immutability ensures that once an object is created, its state cannot change. This prevents bugs caused by unintended modifications, especially in concurrent environments. For example, if a `Product` class has immutable fields, it can safely be shared across threads without synchronization.
