Answer:
The skeletal muscle of the trunk and tail plays the most important part in locomotion and is stronger than the appendicular musculature, controlling the fins. Appendicular muscle derives from trunk myotomes, and only play a secondary part in locomotion, at least in the species that move by means of lateral undulation.

Answer:
Undulatory swimming in fish is powered by the segmental body musculature of the myotomes. Power generated by this muscle and the interactions between the fish and the water generate a backward-travelling wave of lateral displacement of the body and caudal fin
