place of position by one or more Parts of the body

movement helps to perform necessary functions .

breathing is an involuntary movement


L ocomotion

●​ Locomotion is the movement of an organism from one

place to another .

●​ It is always voluntary.

●​ Locomotion takes place at the organism level .

●​ Locomotion doesn't necessarily require energy.


Movement

●​ Movement is the act of changing the place of position by

one or more Parts of the body.

●​ It can be voluntary or involuntary movement.

●​ Movement takes place at the biological level .

●​ Movement requires energy.


Movement in Earthworm

●​ The body of an earthworm is made up of many rings

are joined end to end.

●​ It has muscles which help to extend and shorten the

body under the body .

●​ It has large number of bristles called Shetti which

are connected with muscles.

●​ These brushes help to get group on the ground during

the ground

Cockroach

●​ A cockroach has three pairs of joint legs which help it to
