    Answer: - Option a radial symmetry

    Explanation:-

    Most of the organisms have can either of the two types of symmetry:-

    1. Bilateral symmetry - A body is said to have a bilateral symmetry when it can be divided into 2 equal halves on either side of a single plane.

    For e. g if you cut the letter M from middle vertically then you have two equal halves.

    2. Radial symmetry - A body is said to be radially symmetrical if it can be divided into similar halves in any plane. This means that the organism has its body parts arranged around a central main axis.

    The cnidarians whether in polyp or medusa from exhibit radial symmetry because if you cut them in any plane you will get equal halves.
