Modeling experiments on walking and swimming in robotic salamanders suggest that
A) each type of repetitive motion that an animal performs is controlled by a distinct central pattern generator.
B) some repetitive motions are controlled by a central pattern generator, but others are not.
C) a particular central pattern generator always produces the same pattern of limb movements.
D) simple changes in the coordination of central pattern generators can produce different locomotor gait.
