Answer:
Gait :
- Gait is the pattern of movement of the limbs of animals, including humans, during locomotion over a solid substrate.
- Most animals use a variety of gaits, selecting gait based on speed, terrain, the need to maneuver, and energetic efficiency.
- Different animal species may use different gaits due to differences in anatomy that prevent use of certain gaits, or simply due to evolved innate preferences as a result of habitat differences.
- While various gaits are given specific names, the complexity of biological systems and interacting with the environment make these distinctions "fuzzy" at best.
- Gaits are typically classified according to footfall patterns, but recent studies often prefer definitions based on mechanics.
- The term typically does not refer to limb-based propulsion through fluid mediums such as water or air, but rather to propulsion across a solid substrate by generating reactive forces against it (which can apply to walking while underwater as well as on land).
