Usage Examples English
  • This distinguishes them from other amoeboid groups, although in some members this is not the normal type of locomotion.
  • "Propithecus" and humans are the only species known to use a skipping/galloping type of locomotion.
  • A recent study found that brown tree snakes in Guam can use "lasso locomotion" to climb large smooth cylinders. This type of locomotion has not previously been observed in snakes.
  • Some pennate diatoms are capable of a type of locomotion called "gliding", which allows them to move across surfaces via adhesive mucilage secreted through a seamlike structure called the raphe.
  • They move around by ciliary gliding which is a type of locomotion in which an animal moves on a secreted layer of mucus, propelled by the beating of cilia.

  • Modeling studies on "Eurypterus" swimming behavior suggest that they utilized a drag-based rowing type of locomotion where appendages moved synchronously in near-horizontal planes.
  • This type of locomotion, based on voluntary and coordinated movements of paired pectoral fins, is believed by some to be a precursor to the later development of similar ambulation in terrestrial vertebrates.
  • While this type of locomotion can be beneficial there can be some consequences when dealing with extreme heights as vigorously moving through the trees allows for more opportunity for injury.
