    Child records are not deleted.

    In case of Lookup Relationship, if you delete Master Record, all corresponding Child Records will not be deleted. But if you want to delete child records in this case, you can create a trigger through which on master record deletion the child records will get deleted. It will behave like a master detail relationship.

    Thanks,

    Hi,

    In a Master-Detail relationship, when a master record is deleted, the detail record is deleted automatically (Cascade delete).

    In a Lookup relationship, even if the parent record is deleted, the child record will not be deleted.

    Thanks
