Examples of kinesis include:
* Positive kineses - Movements toward a stimulus, such as movement toward a light source (phototaxis) or movement toward food (chemotaxis).
* Negative kineses - Movements away from a stimulus, such as movement away from a loud noise (phonokinesis) or movement away from a dangerous predator (thigmotaxis).
Kinesis is a fundamental behavioral response observed in various animal species, ranging from simple organisms like bacteria and protozoa to more complex animals like insects and mammals.
