In which segment of JVM memory are created objects placed?

In JVM, objects are created in the heap. The heap is a memory area designated for the dynamic allocation of objects during program execution.

The heap is usually divided into several generations:

• Young Generation — for newly created objects.
• Old Generation — for objects that have survived several garbage collection cycles.

Example: when calling new in Java, an object is allocated in the heap, and the garbage collector is responsible for freeing memory when the object becomes inaccessible.
