What happens when a GameObject is destroyed using the `Destroy` method?

When a GameObject is destroyed using the Destroy method in Unity, the correct outcome is that the GameObject is flagged for destruction at the end of the frame. This means that while the object may still appear in the scene and can still interact with other objects within that frame, it will be removed from the game once all rendering and updates for that frame are complete.

This design choice allows for a smoother gameplay experience, as it ensures that any ongoing interactions or updates involving the GameObject will not be interrupted or cause errors by attempting to remove it during the frame it is still being processed. By marking the GameObject for deletion at the end of the frame, Unity ensures a clean and orderly removal process, thus preventing potential inconsistencies or unexpected behaviors during the game's execution.

In summary, the Destroy method ensures that the object is queued for deletion rather than instantaneously disappearing, allowing for proper handling of the destruction without immediate disruption to the game flow.
