radial symmetry
radial symmetry
Certain animals have their body parts arranged around a central point. A starfish is a good example of this, which is known as radial symmetry.

Radial Symmetry .
Animals with radial symmetry have body parts that are arranged around a central point. Any line drawn from one side through the center to the opposite side will divide the animal into two symmetrical halves. Because of their circular arrangement, radially symmetrical animals donâ??t have a recognizable front or back end, but they may have distinct tops and bottoms.
A group of primitive aquatic animals that include jellyfish, corals, and sea anemones. Colenterates are sessile (sedentary) and exhibit symmetry. Their body parts are symmetrically arranged around a central point.

radially symmetric
The phylum cnidaria have radial symmetry, meaning their body parts are arranged regularly around a central axis. Most are covered with nematocysts structures which serve as defense against predators and appear to be spines from the outside.
radial symmetry which means that all the parts of the body are arranged around a central axis in such a way that any plane passing through the central axis divides the animal in halves that are almost mirror image of each other
In spherical symmetry, body parts radiate out from a central point; an infinite number of planes passing through the central point can divide a spherically symmetrical organism into similar halves. In Radial symmetry, body parts are arranged around one main axis at the body's center.
