Solution

The correct option is B False
The above-given statement is False.
Movement and locomotion are not the same things.
Movement refers to the displacement of a particular body part while locomotion refers to the displacement of the entire body.
The movement and locomotion of animals depend on their body structure and their evolutionary characteristics.
Hence, animals with different body structures possess different modes of movement.
There are mainly three types of movements, namely, amoeboid, ciliary and muscular.
