Do many animals have symmetry

Depends on what you mean by symmetry.

Symmetry in Biology usually mean something like "bilateral symmetry". Meaning a body has a left and a right side that are basically the same. Pretty much all vertebrates follow this pattern.

If you take the strict definition of symmetry, it's another thing. The left side is never a perfect mirror image of the right.

Not one person, animal, or living thing on earth has complete symmetry. Though we might look exactly alike in areas, there are minor differences in sizes, shapes, and maybe even colors of things.

What animals have radical symmetry?

Not sure what you are referring to, "radical" symmetry. But if you meant radial symmetry then you might be looking at animals in the family with starfish, jellyfish, anemones, etc. There is also bilateral symmetry where both sides look the same. Look up radial symmetry and see what you can find.

Most animals will have a high level of right to left symmetry, or "Reflection Symmetry". Note, the symmetry isn't perfect as many of the internal organs only have a single organ and are arranged in a non-symmetric fashion.
