NEET BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Motile marine animals are commonly called free-swimming, and motile non-parasitic organisms are called free-living. Motility includes an organism’s ability to move food through its digestive tract. There are two types of intestinal motility – peristalsis and segmentation.

Detailed explanation-2: -All animals are motile (i.e., they can move spontaneously and independently at some point in their lives) and their body plan eventually becomes fixed as they develop, although some undergo a process of metamorphosis later on in their lives.

Detailed explanation-3: -Most animals are motile, using means such as walking, slithering, swimming, and flying to propel themselves through the world. Many single-celled and microscopic organisms are also motile, using methods such as flagellar motility, amoeboid movement, gliding motility, and swarming motility.

Detailed explanation-4: -Most animals are motile, at least during certain life stages. Animals require a source of food to grow and develop. All animals are heterot rophic, ingesting living or dead organic matter.

Detailed explanation-5: -Most animals are motile, at least during certain life stages. All animals require a source of food and are therefore heterotrophic, ingesting other living or dead organisms; this feature distinguishes them from autotrophic organisms, such as most plants, which synthesize their own nutrients through photosynthesis.
