Can you explain the concept of the Ship of Theseus and how it relates to the philosophical question of identity and change?

The Ship of Theseus is a thought experiment that questions whether an object remains the same when all its parts are replaced over time. This relates to the philosophical question of identity and change because it challenges our understanding of what makes something the same thing despite changes to its parts. It raises questions about the nature of identity and whether an object can retain its identity even if all its parts are replaced.
