    Environmental Cue: touch
    Orientation: negative thigmotaxis
    Adaptive Advantage: This response might be adaptive to avoid predation.. which helps it survive. :)

    Hi Tevita - what disturbs your SlidingDm! I think Rita is pretty correct, but I'm looking forward to your answer too.

    Hmmm, I think that "burowing down" might have something to do with gravity. I think the stimulus might be aversion to being touched so that is negatively thigmotaxis. What do you think about that Tevita?
