Solution

Bilateral Symmetry:

  1. Symmetry is where the same anatomical components are positioned on either side of a median axis, allowing for only one plane to split the subject into two nearly identical halves.
  2. Bilateral symmetry is a feature of the majority of living things.
  3. Worms, insects, spiders, fish, birds, and mammals, including humans, are some examples.
  4. Bilateral symmetry played a significant role in the evolution of the skull and the concentration of sensory organs.
  5. The organisms that show bilateral symmetry have paired body organs that occur on the two sides of a central axis.
  6. It is found in all invertebrates and a few vertebrates. Spider and crab show bilateral symmetry.
