Detailed Solution

The random zig-zag motion of a particle in the diagram refers to Brownian movement of particles. This is generally observed in all types of colloidal solutions and not in true solutions. 
Colloidals solutions are homogeneous in appearance. This colloids are separated by centrifugation
