What is a checkbox in UI?

In UI design, the checkbox is presented as a small square box on the screen. It has two states: checked and unchecked. When checked, the square will be filled with a check mark. Checkboxes are used to present the user with a range of options, from which the user may select any number of options to complete their task.
