Solution

The correct option is B I and II only
In para 4, we learn that "fleas are able to accelerate through the air at an incredibly high rate-a rate which is over ten times what humans can withstand in an airplane." From this we can understand that fleas are able to jump "horizontally and vertically." From this we can understand that fleas can jump up and down and from side to side. This supports option (II).
