Direct sums of injective modules is an injective module? - Answers

Yes, the direct sum of injective modules is indeed an injective module. This follows from the fact that a module ( M ) is injective if for every module ( N ) and every submodule ( K ) of ( N ), every homomorphism from ( K ) to ( M ) can be extended to a homomorphism from ( N ) to ( M ). Since the direct sum of injective modules retains this property, the direct sum itself is injective.
