What are three ways in which a thread can enter the waiting state

Question :What are three ways in which a thread can enter the waiting state?
Answer :A thread can enter the waiting state by invoking its sleep() method, by blocking on I/O, by unsuccessfully attempting to acquire an object's lock, or by invoking an object's wait() method. It can also enter the waiting state by invoking its (deprecated) suspend() method.
