 public class RandomScripts : MonoBehaviour {
 
     public GameObject prefab1, prefab2, prefab3, prefab4, prefab5;
     GameObject prefab11,prefab12,prefab13,prefab14,prefab15;
 
 
     public float t = 0.5f;
     public float spawnRate = 2f;
     
     float nextSpawn = 0f;
 
     int whatToSpawn;
     
     // Update is called once per frame
     void Update()
     {
 
         if(Time.time > nextSpawn)
         {
             whatToSpawn = Random.Range(1, 6);
             
 
             switch(whatToSpawn)
             {
 
                 case 1:
                     prefab11 = Instantiate(prefab1, transform.position, Quaternion.identity)as GameObject;
                     Destroy(prefab11, t);
                     break;
                 case 2:
                     prefab12 = Instantiate(prefab2, transform.position, Quaternion.identity) as GameObject;
                     Destroy(prefab12, t);
                     break;
                 case 3:
                     prefab13 = Instantiate(prefab3, transform.position, Quaternion.identity) as GameObject;
                     Destroy(prefab13, t);
                     break;
                 case 4:
                     prefab14 = Instantiate(prefab4, transform.position, Quaternion.identity) as GameObject;
                     Destroy(prefab14, t);
                     break;
                 case 5:
                     prefab15 = Instantiate(prefab5, transform.position, Quaternion.identity) as GameObject;
                     Destroy(prefab15, t);
                     break;
             }
 
             nextSpawn = Time.time + spawnRate;
         }
 
 
         if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Space))
         {
             Destroy(prefab12);

Ins$$anonymous$$d of destroying a prefab, did you consider to just deactivate that gameobject in hierarchy?

Two reasons for this, First, It consumes less memory to simply disable to gameobject rather than destroying it. And second, with the disabled/inactive gameobject, you could simply re-enable it in-case if you need it, rather than instantiating a new one.
