The 46 pages that link to Locomotion, each with the reason it gives.
Arboreal locomotionNarrower topic: Arboreal locomotion is a specialized form of animal movement.
TetrapodRelated: Tetrapod lineages transformed limb-based movement into walking, running, swimming, and flight.
GaitNarrower topic: Gait is a specific way of producing locomotion on foot.
CursorialityNarrower topic: Cursoriality is a specialized form of terrestrial locomotion.
Functional morphologyNarrower topic: Movement provides measurable tasks for relating body form to performance.
PrecocialityRelated: Mobility is central to precociality, but its timing and effectiveness vary among species.
SarcopterygiiRelated: Lobed fins could provide propulsion and support in water before limbs enabled sustained movement on land.
Bilateral symmetryNarrower topic: Bilateral organization is often associated with coordinated, forward-directed movement.
BilateriaRelated: A front–back axis supports directed movement, a prominent mode of life among bilaterians.
AmbulocetusNarrower topic: Ambulocetus illustrates how locomotion changes when a mammal adapts to both land and water.
Cursorial locomotionNarrower topic: Cursorial locomotion is one specialized form of locomotion.
Postcranial skeletonRelated: Limb and trunk anatomy constrains how an animal moves.
HoppingNarrower topic: Hopping is one way organisms achieve locomotion.
Saltatorial locomotionNarrower topic: Saltatorial movement is one mode within the broader range of animal locomotion.
ScincidaeRelated: Limbed, limbless, and short-legged skinks use different forms of locomotion.
VaranidaeRelated: Many monitor lizards are active, capable runners that pursue prey or escape threats.
DinocephaliaRelated: Limb and body proportions inform reconstructions of dinocephalian movement on land.
MuscleNarrower topic: Skeletal muscle produces much of the force that moves animals through their environment.
PalaeotheriumNarrower topic: Comparisons of limb bones place Palaeotherium within the broader study of mammalian movement.
CoryphodonRelated: Its robust limbs suggest a heavy-bodied animal adapted for terrestrial movement.
AmphicyonidaeRelated: Limb proportions and joint surfaces help reconstruct how amphicyonids moved.
Human skeletonRelated: Bones provide levers and joints provide axes for muscle-driven locomotion.
MammalogyRelated: Comparing movement links mammal anatomy to habitat and behavior.
Monitor lizardNarrower topic: Strong limbs and long tails support terrestrial, arboreal, and aquatic movement in different species.
AnthracotheriidaeRelated: Limb proportions help test whether particular anthracotheres were terrestrial, amphibious, or both.
MacraucheniaRelated: Macrauchenia’s limb proportions are used to assess how it moved across open terrain.
NotoungulataRelated: Limb bones reveal how different notoungulates moved across their environments.
PalaeotheriidaeRelated: Limb proportions and toe structure offer evidence about palaeotheriid movement and habitat.
PoposauroideaNarrower topic: Differences in limb proportions reveal varied movement strategies among poposauroids.
SparassodontaRelated: Limb proportions in sparassodont fossils help reconstruct terrestrial movement and hunting styles.
ArizonasaurusRelated: Arizonasaurus’s limb and hip anatomy informs estimates of how it moved.
ChalicotheriumRelated: Its limb proportions inform hypotheses about how Chalicotherium moved.
DaeodonRelated: Daeodon's long limbs suggest it could travel efficiently across open Miocene landscapes.
JerboaNarrower topic: Jerboas are distinctive examples of how body form shapes movement.
On the SoulRelated: The treatise asks how appetite and thought move animals without moving themselves.
PareiasauriaRelated: Their sprawling limbs and heavy bodies constrain reconstructions of how they moved.
ScutosaurusRelated: Its sprawling limbs supported a heavy body close to the ground.
SimosuchusRelated: Postcranial anatomy helps test whether Simosuchus moved mainly on land rather than like a modern crocodile.
Tree frogRelated: Tree frogs combine climbing, walking, and jumping to move through layered vegetation.
UnipedalismNarrower topic: Unipedalism is a particular way locomotion can be supported and produced.
AnoplotheriidaeRelated: Limb proportions and foot structure inform reconstructions of how anoplotheriids moved.
