A critical activity can be part of a noncritical path.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Critical activities are those that have zero slack or float time, which means that their delay will impact the overall project timeline. Noncritical activities, on the other hand, have some slack time, so their delay will not necessarily impact the project timeline. Therefore, it is possible for a critical activity to be part of a noncritical path, as long as any delay in that activity does not impact the overall timeline of the project.
