Correct answer & explanation
private: Visible only within the same class
In Java, access modifiers control visibility: private (class-only), default (package), protected (package + subclasses), public (everywhere). Common mistakes include confusing private with default and protected with private.
Answer analysis
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
private: Visible only within the same class
Why this is correct
Private access restricts visibility to the enclosing class only.
default: Visible within the same package
Why this is correct
Default (no modifier) access allows visibility within the same package.
protected: Visible within the same package and subclasses
Why this is correct
Protected access permits visibility in the same package and subclasses.
public: Visible from anywhere
Why this is correct
Public access grants visibility to all classes.
private: Visible within the same package
Why it's wrong here
Incorrect — this describes default access, not private.
protected: Visible only within the same class
Why it's wrong here
