Some jellyfish are symmetric with respect to rotations of 90 degrees, 有些水母是关于90度旋转对称的, while sea anemones are symmetric when you rotate them at any angle. 而海葵则是对于任意角度都是旋转对称的。 Some corals, on the other hand, have no symmetry at all. 另一方面,某些珊瑚不具有...
are said to have tetramerous radial symmetry; sea stars, with five arms, have pentamerous radial symmetry. Many flowers, such as dandelions and daffodils, are radially symmetrical. Nonradial parts, such as the slit-shaped gullets of sea anemones, are often present in otherwise radial animals....
Over 99% of modern animals are members of the evolutionary lineage Bilateria. The evolutionary success of Bilateria is credited partly to the origin of bilateral symmetry. Although animals of the phylum Cnidaria are not within the Bilateria, some representatives, such as the sea anemone Nematostell...
Analysis of symmetry forms, which were studied mainly based on the material of sea anemones and other skeletonless representatives of Anthozoa, has revealed the main stages of coral polyp development, characterized by the following manifestations: (1) the initial bilateral arrangement of mesenteries ...
Sea anemone is a house of clown fish and also exhibits polyp in its life cycle. Jellyfish which has an umbrella shape medusa and polyp forms. Sea fan which use their polyps to catch bacteria. Portuguese men-of-war which are poisonous. ...

etc., parts in a circle have symmetry that may be referred to, respectively, as three-rayed, five-rayed, seven-rayed, etc.; only certain planes through the axis will divide such animals into symmetrical halves. Radial symmetry is found in thecnidarians(includingjellyfish,sea anemones, andcora...
Radial symmetry in jellyfish is displayed in the arrangement of their arms. This image shows a floating moon jellyfish. They have no front or back orientation and display radial symmetry in their medusa form. Sea Anemones Sea anemones are cnidarians that remain in their polyp forms for their...
