Definitions:

Base Class

A class in object-oriented programming from which other classes, known as derived or child classes, inherit properties and methods.

Polymorphism

A concept in object-oriented programming that allows objects of different classes to be treated as objects of a common super class, enabling a single interface to represent different underlying forms of data.

Extends

A keyword in Java indicating that a class is inheriting from a superclass.

Method Overriding

Method overriding occurs when a subclass provides a specific implementation for a method that is already defined in its superclass.
