Radial Symmetry

This is a photo of a starfish, which is one of the best examples of radial symmetry that can be found in nature. Radial Symmetry, as opposed to bilateral symmetry and asymmetry, is a basic body layout in which the organism at hand can be simply divided any which way along a central axis. The radial symmetry is easily observed on the underside of this starfish.
