Why do objects move in different way?

Answer 1

Animals have different body structures, so they move differently. They have different structures because of MANY years of evolution. Animals living in different areas with different landscapes had to get around differently, so they adapted. And they also had to get food from hard-to-reach places, so they adapted. Like a giraffe has a long neck for tree leaves and a wolf has long legs to chase and catch prey. Monkeys have those flexible limbs for climbing and tails for balance while dwelling in the high trees.

The simple answer is: different body structures.

But the have different body structure because they had to adapt.

Living creatures move differently because they have different body structures. They have longer legs, shorter legs, stronger or weaker muscles that allow them to run faster or jump higher or faster or no legs at all so they have to crawl, and they have longer, shorter, stronger, or weaker arms.

All this as a result of adpating and evolving over thousand or millions of years, or maybe they were designed and created that way. Even with the belief of creation, there is evidence that animals did adapt and change, or there are signs that species that were known have disappeared and new ones exist that were not previously known. Animals are believed to have adapted over time to conform to the requirements of their environment, to be able to get food, and to be able to not be food.

This does not mean animals grew flexible limbs for climbing and tails for balance so they could become monkeys dwelling in the high trees. It means that some animals were born and grew up with genetic mutations that allowed them to live in tree and hide from ground based predators. They had a better chance to survive and propogate than earlier versions of the same animal that were stuck on the ground.

Answer 2

Objects are made from different materials, have different shapes, and are put together differently. For example, a rubber ball will bounce. A round object will roll, but a square object won't.

Answer 3

So they can balance.
