Solution

The correct option is D Movement
  • Locomotion is when the movement of a part of the body leads to a change in the position and location of the organism.
  • In multicellular animals, these movements include walking, running, jumping, crawling, climbing, swimming, flying, galloping, slithering, and so on.
  • Cytoplasmic streaming, also called protoplasmic streaming, is the movement of the fluid substance (cytoplasm) within a plant or animal cell. If one of the proteins remains fixed on a substrate, such as a microfilament or a microtubule, the motor proteins can move organelles and other molecules through the cytoplasm.
  • So, the correct answer is option B.
