The correct statement is: Not all reactions fit into one category, and some reactions can fit into more than one category.

Chemical reactions can be classified into several categories (such as synthesis, decomposition, single replacement, double replacement, combustion, etc.), but not all reactions neatly fit into a single category, and many reactions can exhibit characteristics of multiple categories.
