In either case the body becomes divided at right angles to its long axis into a series of segments, which, in the simpler cases of locomotion, are honionomous (Annelids, Myriapods, Snakes). As development progresses some of the muscles required for locomotion gradually lose their relation to the axis of the body, and acquire a relation to secondary axes; and in this way conditions are acquired for the accomplishment of more difficult and complete forms of locomotion. The hard parts in the long axis of the body then looe their primitive
