Answer 1

Hey there!

--------

Q. Which will contain the body of the thread?

(A) run() ✔
(B) start()
(C) stop()
(D) main()

Answer => Option (A) run()

--> The run() method contain the body of thread because the run() method to a thread is like the main() method to an application. Starting the thread causes the object's run method to be called in that separately executing thread.

Hope this helps :)

Answer 2

(a). The run() method to a thread is like the main() method to an application.

Explanation:

• Starting the thread causes the object's run method to be called in that separately executing thread.
• If the thread was built using a separate Runnable object, the run() method of the Thread class is invoked.
• To start a thread, you must use the run method. To start a new thread, you must use the start method.
• If you call the run method directly, it will not start a separate thread and will remain on the same stack as the main thread.
• When a program calls the start() method, a new thread is created, and then the run() method is executed.
• But if we directly call the run() method then no new thread will be created and the run() method will be executed as a normal method call on the current calling thread itself and no multi-threading will take place.
