If you apply changes to a prefab, what happens to other prefab instances created from that prefab?

• A. Only the selected instance updates
• B. All other prefabs update
• C. Nothing changes
• D. They disappear

Answer: (B)

Prefab instances act as references to a single prefab asset. When you apply changes to that prefab, the template itself is updated and those changes propagate to all other instances that share the same prefab. This is why modifying the prefab shapes all instances to reflect the new values. If an instance has its own overrides for specific properties, those overrides stay in place, and only the non-overridden data follows the updated prefab, so you may need to revert or reapply to see uniform changes everywhere.
