How does the list manage memory during its operation?

In Flutter, a list (for example, List) manages memory automatically thanks to Dart's garbage collector. When list elements are no longer used and there are no references to them, the memory is freed automatically. When adding elements to the list, memory is allocated dynamically, and when removing them, it is freed if references to the objects disappear.
Example:
List<String> fruits = ['apple', 'banana'];
fruits.add('orange'); // memory for the new element is allocated automatically
fruits.removeAt(0); // if there are no more references to 'apple', its memory will be freed by the garbage collector
