In LINQ to Entities, what does the "Include" method help achieve?
- Eager loading of related entities
- Filtering of query results
- Lazy loading of related entities

The "Include" method in LINQ to Entities helps achieve eager loading of related entities. Eager loading fetches the related entities along with the main entity in a single query, reducing the need for subsequent database round-trips. This can improve performance by minimizing the number of database calls required to retrieve related data.
