Answers
●LOCOMOTION IN FISH
The major forms of locomotion in fish are anguilliform, in which a wave passes evenly along a long slender body; sub-carangiform, in which the wave increases quickly in amplitude towards the tail; carangiform, in which the wave is concentrated near the tail.
●LOCOMOTION IN SNAKE
Rectilinear locomotion. Rectilinear locomotion or rectilinear progression is a mode of locomotion most often associated with snakes. ... It is one of at least five forms of locomotion used by snakes, the others being lateral undulation, sidewinding, concertina movement, and slide-pushing.
●LOCOMOTION IN INSECTS
In most insects, the primary function of the legs is to enable walking on land, but modifications of their structure allow them to be used in other kinds of locomotion, including jumping, swimming and walking on water.
●LOCOMOTION IN HORSE
The four basic gaits are the walk, trot,
canter, and gallop. The walk is what is known as a “four-beat gait” and two feet always maintain contact with the ground. The gait is from side to side as both feet on one side of the horse (e.g., right front and right hind) hit the ground before the two feet on the opposite do.
