Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Packets are transmitted over a network from one computer to another. They are routed through a series of interconnected devices, such as routers and switches, before reaching their final destination. When packets arrive at their destination, they are reassembled into the original data.

If the network changes, due to congestion or faults, routers can use an alternative interfaces to reach a destination. So packets may travel over different routes to reach the same destination.
