Detailed explanation-1: -In the animal kingdom, there are two broad phyla that exhibit radial symmetry: One of these is cnidaria, which include jellyfish, anemones, and corals. Jellyfish exhibit radial symmetry in four points around its center. The other phylum is echinodermata, such as sea stars, urchins, and sea cucumbers.
Detailed explanation-2: -The body of an animal is radial symmetry. Example: hydra, jellyfish, sea anemone.
Detailed explanation-3: -Radial Symmetry This form of symmetry marks the body plans of animals in the phyla Ctenophora (comb jellies) and Cnidaria (corals, sea anemones, and other jellies).
Detailed explanation-4: -The body plan of cnidarians is unique because these organisms show radial symmetry, making these animals very different from those that evolved before them. Radial symmetry means that they have a circular body plan, and any cut through the center of the animal leaves two equal halves.
Detailed explanation-5: -Cnidarians have radial symmetry. Echinoderms are bilateral animals that have a 5-part radial symmetry as adults.
