Solution

The correct option is B False
If a body exhibits more than one type of motion at the same time, then such a motion is called multiple motions.
When a body moves such that it has no fixed path and its motion changes suddenly from one type to another, it is said to exhibit random motion.
Here, the motion of a flying butterfly is a random motion.
Thus, the given statement is false.
