Solution

The correct option is D
Straight line

The Rectilinear Propagation of light describes that light travels in a straight line.
Light does not change direction unless it hits any reflecting surface.
So it cannot move in curved line, rectangular or Circular line.
Hence light always travels in a straight line
Therefore, option D is the correct answer.
