Yes, we can create an object of the Base class.

If we make a class as abstract then we can't create an object of that class.

we can create only pointer of that class this is because to provide one interface to access and so that runtime time polymorphism can implement.

Hi,

There are only two mechanism in java to define a type with multiple implementations those are interfaces and abstract classes.

abstract class permit implementation of some methods in it and interface not.
