Answer 1

In a parent child relation ship between two different entities,

e.g one to many(1:N) or many to one(N:1)

Parent <-> Child. (Owner) (Inverse)

If parent is owner then child is its inverse.

Using the inverse is always check for child.

By default we always consider from parent side. So by default inverse = false means parent is owner.

If inverse= true then child is owner. So persisting of entity will always take from owner side.
