deambulazione

Also known as ambulation, walking movement, walking gait, by foot

thumb|Women walking in Hyderabad Walking (also known as ambulation) is one of the main gaits of terrestrial locomotion among legged animals. Walking is typically slower than running and other gaits. Walking is defined as an "inverted pendulum" gait in which the body vaults over the stiff limb or limbs with each step. This applies regardless of the usable number of limbs—even arthropods, with six, eight, or more limbs, walk. In humans, walking has health benefits including improved mental health and reduced risk of cardiovascular disease and death.

AI overview

Walking is a common way that animals with legs move across land, where the body swings forward over stiff limbs with each step—a method used by creatures ranging from humans to insects. In humans, walking offers important health advantages, including better mental health and lower risks of heart disease and death.

La deambulazione è una successione ritmica di movimenti utilizzata dagli animali dotati di arti per spostarsi sul suolo da un luogo all'altro; si differenzia quindi da altre forme di locomozione come il nuoto, il volo o l'andatura a salti o balzi, ed è solitamente più lenta della corsa. Ai movimenti degli arti inferiori, che consistono nell'alternanza di flessioni ed estensioni dei loro segmenti, si accompagnano spesso movimenti di altri settori corporei.
