Allows objects to be treated as instances of their parent class.
Polymorphism enables a single interface to represent different data types. In Java, this means you can use a superclass reference to work with different subclass objects. For example, a 'List' can contain objects of 'Book', 'Electronics', etc., allowing versatile code that can work with any 'Product' subclass without knowing its exact type.
