The 35 pages that link to Gait, each with the reason it gives.

• HorseRelated: Walking, trotting, and galloping are distinct horse gaits.

• CursorialityNarrower topic: Cursorial adaptations alter how terrestrial animals coordinate their strides.

• QuadrupedalismNarrower topic: Quadrupedal animals use different gaits to coordinate their four limbs.

• WalkingNarrower topic: Walking is one gait, defined by alternating steps and support.

• AtaxiaRelated: A broad-based, unsteady gait is a frequent presentation of ataxia.

• Terrestrial locomotionNarrower topic: Terrestrial movement is organized into recurring gait patterns such as walking and running.

• Dinosaur locomotionNarrower topic: Comparing limb-cycle patterns helps distinguish walking from faster movement.

• Bilateral symmetryRelated: Alternating movements of corresponding left and right limbs make bilateral coordination observable.

• Falls in older adultsRelated: Changes in walking speed, step length, or steadiness can increase fall risk.

• Laetoli footprintsRelated: Stride length, foot placement, and track sequence help researchers infer how the trackmakers moved.

• Motor coordinationBroader topic: Walking requires repeated coordination across the limbs, trunk, and sensory systems.

• FootNarrower topic: Foot function is easiest to see across the repeated phases of walking.

• Kangaroo locomotionNarrower topic: Kangaroos switch between distinct movement patterns as speed and task change.

• HoppingRelated: Hopping can be analyzed as a gait with repeated single-limb contacts.

• DigitigradeNarrower topic: Digitigrady describes foot posture within the broader mechanics of an animal's gait.

• Draft animalRelated: An animal’s gait affects the speed and steadiness of its work.

• FootworkNarrower topic: Footwork is a broader movement skill; gait describes recurring walking and running patterns.

• UnguligradeNarrower topic: Unguligrade describes a stance and foot-contact pattern within animal locomotion.

• HindlimbRelated: Hindlimb timing and placement help define an animal’s gait.

• Saltatorial locomotionRelated: The timing and sequence of limb contacts define a leaping animal's gait.

• Sauropod locomotionRelated: Limb sequence and timing determine how a sauropod's body advanced.

• Foot bindingRelated: Foot binding changed balance, stride, mobility, and the physical costs of walking.

• Metatarsal bonesRelated: During push-off, load passes through the metatarsal heads toward the toes.

• TripedalismNarrower topic: Tripedal movement is one possible arrangement within the broader study of gait.

• EuparkeriaRelated: Reconstructing Euparkeria's gait tests what its limb anatomy could do.

• Nordic walkingNarrower topic: Nordic walking modifies ordinary gait by coordinating pole plants with alternating steps.

• ButtocksRelated: Gluteal muscle weakness alters pelvic control during the walking cycle.

• Facultative bipedalismNarrower topic: Facultative bipedalism involves switching among gait patterns as posture and task change.

• High-heeled shoeRelated: Heel elevation can alter stride, walking speed, and how the foot contacts the ground.

• Human legRelated: Leg muscles and joints coordinate through repeated stance and swing phases.

• UnipedalismNarrower topic: Unipedal locomotion is a distinctive way of organizing a gait cycle.

• Human backRelated: Trunk and back motion helps stabilize the body during each step.

• Human musculoskeletal systemBroader topic: Walking shows how muscles and joints coordinate repeated, whole-body movement.

• Leg mechanismRelated: A linkage supplies foot motion, while gait determines how multiple legs take turns supporting the body.

• Musculoskeletal and Neural Physiological PhenomenaBroader topic: Walking exposes the coordinated neural and musculoskeletal functions in this category.
