The directed movement of a motile cell or organism towards the source of gravity. Self-propelled movement of a cell or organism from one location to another. The directed movement of a motile cell or organism away from the source of gravity. A change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of an external stimulus. A change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a gravitational stimulus. The directed movement of a motile cell or organism in response to gravity. The directed movement of a motile cell or organism in response to an external stimulus. A change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of an abiotic (non-living) stimulus. 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.
