An object or image that best illustrates radial symmetry is a snowflake. But, a snowflake is not perfectly symmetrical; it only appears to be perfect to the naked eye.

β 13y agoA sunflower is a good example of an object that illustrates radial symmetry. The seeds of the sunflower radiate outwards from the center, creating a symmetrical pattern that is repeated throughout the entire flower.

An ape has bilateral symmetry, which means that its body can be divided into two mirror-image halves along a single plane. Radial symmetry, on the other hand, is typically found in animals like jellyfish or sea anemones where multiple planes of symmetry can be drawn through a central axis.
Beavers, like all vertebrates, have bilateral symmetry. This means they have symmetry across one plane (known as the sagittal plane, and directly down the centre of their body), which means one side of their body approximately mirrors the other side.
Symmetry is a balanced and harmonious arrangement of elements on both sides of a central point or line. The three types of symmetry are reflection (mirror symmetry), rotational (circular symmetry), and translational (repeating patterns). An example of reflection symmetry is a butterfly's wings, rotational symmetry can be seen in a starfish, and translational symmetry is demonstrated in wallpaper patterns.
No. All crabs have bilateral symmetry. Bilateral symmetry means the animal has symmetry across one plane (known as the sagittal plane, and directly down the centre of their body), which means one side of their body approximately mirrors the other side.
Something that is symmetrical along a line. Like you could fold it in half and it would be the same. Like a rorschach inkblot. A butterfly. A person. The other kind of symmetry is radial symmetry, which is symmetrical from a point. Like a starfish. I think things that are radially symmetrical are always also laterally symmetrical, but there could be some weird exception to that that I can't think of.
Not sure what you are referring to.Radial symmetry? Objects with radial symmetry can be rotated in a plane and appear the same. Starfish have radial symmetry.Compared to bilateral symmetry where the object is the same or a reflection of itself down a centre line. Humans are approximately bilaterally symmetrical.Words that are the same in each direction are called palindromes. Mum, mom, abba, deed, kayak, deified, sexes, civic...
radial symmetry: the condition of having similar parts regularly arranged around a central axisCite:"radial symmetry." Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary. 2008. Merriam-Webster Online. 15 November 2008
No. An object/image has symmetry if you can draw a straight line through it and both sides are symmetrical (where the image looks the same on both sides of the line of symmetry.) There is no angle that you can place a line on the capital letter 'L' and get symmetrical images.
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
The definition of a line of symmetry is a line that can be draw down the center of any shape or object to show mirror image of the other side. where each side is a mirror image of the other side.
Radial SymmetryRadial symmetry is rotational symmetry around a fixed point known as the center. Radial symmetry can be classified as either cyclic or dihedral.Cyclic symmetries are represented with the notation Cn, where n is the number of rotations. Each rotation will have an angle of 360/n. For example, an object having C3 symmetry would have three rotations of 120 degrees.Dihedral symmetries differ from cyclic ones in that they have reflection symmetries in addition to rotational symmetry. Dihedral symmetries are represented with the notation Dn where n represents the number of rotations, as well as the number of reflection mirrors present. Each rotation angle will be equal to 360/n degrees and the angle between each mirror will be 180/n degrees. An object with D4 symmetry would have four rotations, each of 90 degrees, and four reflection mirrors, with each angle between them being 45 degrees.Bilateral SymmetryBilateral symmetry is symmetry across a line of reflection. Are people symmetric? We think we are, but upon closer analysis, we are less symmetric than we think. The more simple the creature (ants --> elephants), the more likeley it is that it will be perfectly symmetric.We took two professors, cut and pasted half of their head in Photoshop, and flipped that half horizontally. We then aligned the two halves so that it came closest ro resembling a human head. You be the judge on how good of a job we did and how symmetric people around us are in general ...Asymmetrical SymmetryAsymmetry is the absence of, or a violation of, symmetry.
It can be thought of rotational symmetry along the axis
When you can cut the object in half and it will look like a mirror image of each side.
Yes. The image associated with this answer illustrates the situation in the case of non-Euclidean space. For more examples, search the web for MC Escher's Symmetry artwork.
The property is Reflection Symmetry, Line Symmetry or Mirror Symmetry
Reflection symmetry, reflectional symmetry, line symmetry, mirror symmetry, mirror-image symmetry, or bilateral symmetry is symmetry with respect to reflection
The definition of a line of symmetry is a line that can be draw down the center of any shape or object to show mirror image of the other side. where each side is a mirror image of the other side. Now for a horizontal one, it just means that if you cut the figure in half, horizontally it will make a mirror image.
