Apex has a class called Schema. It contains the entire schema of your organization. Objects, their fields, field type etc. can all be retrieved using this class.
List<Schema.SObjectType> gd = Schema.getGlobalDescribe().Values();

To retrieve the list of objects, one needs to create a list of Entity :1. Create an empty list called the results list.2. Loop through the items in the Entity B list.3. For each item in the list, retrieve Entity A from the associated table.4. Add the results of the retrieve to the results list.
