locomotion
Definition
Target type: biologicalprocess
Self-propelled movement of a cell or organism from one location to another. [GOC:dgh]
Locomotion is the ability of an organism to move from one place to another. It encompasses a wide range of processes, from the simple movements of individual cells to the complex coordinated movements of multicellular organisms. Locomotion is essential for survival, allowing organisms to access resources such as food and water, to escape from predators, and to find mates. There are many different forms of locomotion, including walking, running, swimming, flying, crawling, and slithering. The mechanism of locomotion is dependent on the organism's environment and its anatomical structure. For example, animals that live in water have evolved specialized structures such as fins and tails to propel themselves through the water. Animals that live on land have evolved limbs with joints that allow them to move over solid surfaces. Locomotion is a complex process that requires the coordinated action of many different systems in the body, including the nervous system, the muscular system, and the skeletal system. The nervous system controls the muscles that move the body, and the skeletal system provides the framework for movement. The muscular system provides the force to move the body. Locomotion is an essential aspect of life, and it is a fascinating example of the diversity and complexity of the natural world.'
