Solution

The correct answer is "Only A".

Explanation:

A. The default implementation of the toString() method in the Object class returns a string consisting of the name of the class of which the object is an instance, the at-sign character `@', and the unsigned hexadecimal representation of the hash code of the object. This is not exactly the memory address of the object, but it's unique for each object and can serve a similar purpose.

B. The toString() method is not automatically invoked when an object is created. It needs to be explicitly called.

C. Overriding the toString() method is not mandatory for every Java class. It's a good practice to override it for better readability and debugging, but it's not a requirement.

D. The toString() method can be overridden by user-defined classes. In fact, it's commonly overridden to provide a meaningful representation of the object.
