Any biological process, occurring at the level of a multicellular organism, pertinent to its function. Locomotory behavior in a larval (immature) organism. The actions or reactions of a larval organism relating to the progression of that organism along the ground by the process of lifting and setting down each leg. Fine-tuning the spatial position of a larva in response to variability in their environment. For example, reorientation of a larva in the direction of a food source. Behavior in a larval form of an organism, an immature organism that must undergo metamorphosis to assume adult characteristics. The specific actions or reactions of an organism in response to external or internal stimuli. Patterned activity of a whole organism in a manner dependent upon some combination of that organism's internal state and external conditions. The specific movement from place to place of an organism in response to external or internal stimuli. Locomotion of a whole organism in a manner dependent upon some combination of that organism's internal state and external conditions. The movement of a third instar larva through a substrate in search of a pupation site. This movement occurs without feeding and is characterized by short bursts of forward movement, separated by stops and repeated side-to-side head probes, followed normally by a change in direction. Digging into the substrate by non-feeding larvae in search for food-free sites suitable for pupation.
