Answer:

There are 4 types of movement:

rectilinear, straight line using belly scales to get a grip like the tread on a car.

Sidewinder, basically where the snake could along keeping two parts of its body in contact with the ground and rest is in the air. It's typically seen in desert snakes and produces seperate body length prints in sand.

Serpentine, typical snake movement pushing off small bumps and protruding objects in an S shape.

Coiled a more extreme version of the serpentine, used when there is a lack of small projections.

Typically corn snakes tend to use the latter two, ball pythons use the first and sidewinder rattlesnake prefers the second.

While earthworms do not have legs, they do have muscles. They have muscles that circle their body and muscles that go from one end to the other. The longitudinal muscles can shorten or lengthenthe worm's body.

earthworms crawl by lengthening its front part and pushing forward through the soil.

Water snail locomotion: underwater crawling. Land snails move via adhesive locomotion. Through muscular contraction and expansion of their foot, they transmit waves of shear stress through a thin layer of mucus onto a solid substrate.

movement. and cockroach the cockroach has three pairs of legs that help it to walk. ... it to fly a cockroach. moves its legs with the help of muscles near the limbs it. uses its breast muscles help to move its wings and fly a cockroach.

It is used mainly by large snakes such as large vipers, boas, and pythons. In rectilinear locomotion, the belly scales are alternately lifted slightly from the ground and pulled forward, and then pulled downward and backward. ... Static friction is the dominant type of friction involved in rectilinear locomotion.
