Answer
By keeping behavior and data together. Frame the concept in practical terms so you can explain it during interview discussion.
Anemic objects lack behavior and only hold data, violating object-oriented principles. Encapsulation encourages combining behavior with data, which results in more cohesive and meaningful objects. For instance, a `Cart` class should handle operations like adding items or calculating total price, rather than just holding a list of `CartItem` objects.
