    Linked via "positive orthokinesis"

    Orthokinesis involves a direct correlation between the intensity of the stimulus and the speed or frequency of locomotion. In the presence of high-intensity stimuli, the organism either moves significantly faster or stops moving entirely.
    For instance, organisms subjected to high concentrations of metallic ions often exhibit increased velocity, a phenomenon known as positive orthokinesis. Conversely, noxious stimuli typically induce [ne…
