Actually, there are four kinds of reptile motion: 

Concertina - vermiform. Circular muscles around the snake squeeze the front of the snake's body out long, then the latter half is pulled forward. 

Rectilinear crawling - Belly scutes are moved forward individually in a wave-like motion. 

Side-winding - Snake's version of "walking". Use by several species to move over fluidic substrates, such as sand. 

Lateral undulation - Most common form of movement. Snake presses on alternating pressure points to force body forward (or backward)

What does index fossil mean?
marysya [2.9K]

An index fossil is a  fossil that is useful for dating and correlating the strata in which it is found.

Or it is a fossil that helps you find the date where it has been found. I rephrased that.
