Polymorphism is the ability of an object to take on many forms. The most common use of polymorphism in OOP occurs when a parent class reference is used to refer to a child class object. Any Java object that can pass more than one IS-A test is considered to be polymorphic.

David Kariuki you are right! Polymorphism allows you to invoke derived class methods through a base class reference during runtime.
