Answer:

The answer to the given question is "yes".

Explanation:

In the programming language, Protected is a keyword that is used as an access modifier by using protected members we only access within the same class and it also provides access to use this member in the derived class that is inherited by derived class from the base class.

That's why the answer to this question is "yes".
