A seal has bilateral symmetry. This means that if you cut the seal into right and left halves (called a sagittal cut), the two halves will be basically identical to each other. This is the same time of symmetry seen in humans.
The three types of symmetry are bilateral symmetry, radial symmetry, and asymmetry. Bilateral symmetry is when an organism can be divided into mirror-image halves along a single plane, while radial symmetry allows for multiple symmetrical planes around a central axis. Humans exhibit bilateral symmetry, as our body can be divided into left and right halves that are mirror images of each other.
Yes, a butterfly's body can be externally divided into equal halves through a plane passing through the center, a characteristic known as bilateral symmetry. While the two halves may appear mirror images of each other, butterflies do not have a distinct right or left side due to this symmetry. This allows for balanced development and efficient movement in their environment.
An object or organism that has left and right halves that mirror each other is said to exhibit bilateral symmetry. This is a common characteristic of many animals, including humans. It means that if an imaginary line is drawn down the center of the organism, the two halves will be nearly identical in shape and size.
The axis of symmetry refers to a line that divides a shape or figure into two mirror-image halves. In geometry, particularly with parabolas, it is the vertical line that passes through the vertex, ensuring that the left and right sides are symmetrical. For other shapes, it can be any line along which the shape can be folded to create two identical halves.
Bilateral symmetry divides an organism into left and right halves.

The word you're looking for is.... symmetry.
bilateral symmetry
This is called a sagittal plane if divided this way with symmetrical left and right halves. If the section produces asymmetrical halves, this is a parasagittal section.
right hemisphere and left hemisphere
The plane referred to as the midline is the midsagittal plane. It divides the body into left and right halves, ensuring symmetry between the two sides.
The brain has a left cerebral hemisphere and a right cerebral hemisphere, as well as a stem.
Cerebral hemispheres (left and right)
A horseshoe crab has bilateral symmetry, meaning that its body can be divided into two equal halves along a single plane. This type of symmetry allows for the organism to have a distinct left and right side.
Yes, the superior plane divides the body into upper and lower halves, not right and left halves. The right and left halves are divided by the midsagittal plane.
The dissectional planes that divides the body into left and right equal halves are called the midsagittal plane. This answer is referenced from my dental assisting book. Keisha
