Answer / shadow
When we install a java package. It contains 2 things
* The Java Runtime Environment (JRE)
* The Java Development Kit (JDK)
The JRE provides runtime support for Java applications. The
JDK provides the Java compiler and other development tools.
The JDK includes the JRE.
Both the JRE and the JDK include a Java Virtual Machine
(JVM). This is the application that executes a Java
program. A Java program requires a JVM to run on a
particular platform.....!

Java Virtual Machine is the runtime environment of JAVA. The JVM has 3 forms as 1. Specification 2. Concrete implementation 3. Run time execution. JVM is platform dependent. A single JVM instance is created per JAVA standalone or web application. The lifecycle of JVM instance starts with the start of application and ends with the stop of application.
