Solution:

Locomotion and Movement are performed by muscles and joints in our body. Movement means only a part of our body moves without changing the place of the body. Example: Raising our upper limb, moving or wrist etc. Locomotion is movement resulting in change of place. Example: Walking, Running etc. Locomotion is with the help of skeletal muscles and thus is voluntary.
