Solution

The correct option is B Bilaterally symmetrical.
Starfish are echinoderms. The larvae of the echinoderms have bilateral symmetry but this is lost during metamorphosis when their bodies are reorganised and develop the characteristic radial symmetry of the echinoderm. Thus, the correct answer is option B.
