What is the result of passing a List<Apple> to a method accepting List<Fruit>?

Passing a List to a method accepting List would result in a compile-time error. This is because List is a more specific type than List, so it cannot be implicitly converted. The option Runtime exception is incorrect because the error would be caught during the compilation process rather than at runtime. The option Warning for unchecked conversion is incorrect because there is no type conversion happening in this scenario. Lastly, the option The method executes without any issue is incorrect because the method would not be able to accept the List as an argument, thus it would not execute.
