Question
- what kind of symmetry do most echinoderm adults display?
pentaradial symmetry
bilateral symmetry
radial symmetry
asymmetry
Brief Explanations
Echinoderms (like starfish, sea urchins) as adults typically show pentaradial symmetry, meaning their body parts are arranged around a central axis in five-fold symmetry. Bilateral symmetry is more common in organisms with distinct left - right sides (like humans), radial symmetry is a more general form of symmetry around an axis (but echinoderms have the specific pentaradial), and asymmetry means no symmetry, which is not the case for echinoderm adults.
