Symmetrical balance is when everything is perfectly and evenly balanced out.
Asymmetrical balance refers to a design that has dissimilar elements but still appears balanced, dividing a picture in half won't have the exact same elements however the elements they do have are varied and seem to balance one another out.

∙ 12y agoA sponge is asymmetrical. You cannot draw a straight line to divide its body into two or more equal parts. Its body is not organized around a center.
A sea star has radial symmetry. Its body is organized around the center, like spokes on a wheel.

3 types of symmetry?
Bilateral Symmetry - Right down an animal (Worm or fish)Radial Symmetry - Symmetry like a circle (E.g - Starfish)Asymmetrical - No symmetry
What type of symmetry do sponges exhibit How does this differ from organisms belonging to phylum Cnidaria Arthropoda?
Sponges are asymmetrical. Organisms in Cnidaria have radial symmetry while organisms in Arthropoda exhibit bilateral symmetry.
Which type of symmetry is enable faster movement bilateral or radial symmetry?
Bilateral since there is more variations of symmetry that can involve a more streamline shape than radial symmetry
What do Radial and Bilateral have in common?
Symmetry in biology is the balanced distribution of duplicate body parts or shapes. The body plans of most multicellular organisms exhibit some form of symmetry, either radial symmetry or bilateral symmetry or "spherical symmetry". A small minority exhibit no symmetry (are asymmetric).
What line of symmetry does the hookworm have?
It has bi-lateral symmetry, although it's so simple a creature you could almost argue for radial symmetry.
Does a jellyfish have bilateral symmetry radial symmetry or asymmetrical symmetry?
Jelly fish are radial symmetrical
Does a brain coral have bilateral symmetry radial symmetry or is it asymmetrical?
No, anything in phylum Cnidaria (including corals) have radial symmetry
Does a sponge have radial symmetry bilateral symmetry or no symmetry?
A sponge has no symmetry, and is therefore asymmetrical.
Is a sponge a bilateral or radial?
Sponges are asymmetrical. They have no symmetry.
Is a red beard sponge radial or bilateral?
sponges have no symmetry animals with radial symmetry are radiata and cnidaria, like jellyfish
What kind of symmetry do sponges exhibit?
Sponges are asymmetrical, although a few species have nearly radial symmetry.
Does a slime have bilateral symmetry radial symmetry or is it asymmetrical?
They are animals that are bilateral, they can be split into two perfectly into two, the parts that lie opposite of the axis of the worm is identical.
Does a bobcat have bilateral symmetry radial symmetry or is it asymmetrical?
a bobcat has bilateral symmetry because bilateral symmetry is where it mirrors each other
Is a snail's symmetry radial or bilaterial?
The snail's body itself is bilateral symmetry. The shell it creates is not.A snail has bilateral symmetry but its shell has radial symmetry.PS. It is radial not radical.
3 types of symmetry?
Bilateral Symmetry - Right down an animal (Worm or fish)Radial Symmetry - Symmetry like a circle (E.g - Starfish)Asymmetrical - No symmetry
Are cuttlefish bilateral symmetry radial symmetry or is it asymmetrical?
Because they have 2 eyes, they are usually listed as bilaterally symmetrical.
What type of symmetry do phylum porifera have?
Phylum Porifera sponges have radial symmetry.
