Locomotion and Movement

Locomotion

The movement of a creature from one place to another is known as locomotion. During the process, there is the action of appendages such as wings, limbs, and flagella. In some animals, like fish, whales, and sharks, locomotion upshots from a wave-like series of muscle contractions. Locomotion helps an organism in finding their food, avoid harsh weather conditions, escape from their predators, etc.

Some examples of locomotion are walking, running, swimming, etc. Movement, on the other hand, refers to any type of motion that need not be localized.
