What is the difference between radial symmetry and spherical symmetry?

In spherical symmetry, body parts radiate out from a central point; an infinite number of planes passing through the central point can divide a spherically symmetrical organism into similar halves. In Radial symmetry, body parts are arranged around one main axis at the body's center.

How is an echinoderm's radial symmetry different from that of a jellyfish?
The echinoderm's mouth is the shape of a pentagon and it has 5 teeth-like teeth. The difference between the echinoderm's and the jellyfish's radial symmetry is that the jellyfish shows radial symmetry and is spherical in shape. The echinoderms are flatter, have five arms and have pentaradial symmetry.
Is a jellyfish symmetry radial or bilaterial?
Brain corals are hemispherical or spherical in shape resembling a brain. They must me radially symmetrical organism.
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).
How are echinoderms radial symmetry different from a jellyfish?
ctenophorains(jellysfish) are spherical in shape much like a ball hence show radial symmetry. echinoderms(starfish) generally are flatter and have 5 arms hence are called pentaradial symmetry (can be cut in only 5 directions)
Do beavers have bilateral symmetry or radial symmetry?

Does a sea cucumber have radial symmetry?
radial symmetry
What is the difference between Cnidaria and cubazoa?
Cubazoa are a group of cnidarians. Cnidarians are animals that have radial symmetry and are usually venomous or poisonous.
Does a jellyfish have bilateral symmetry radial symmetry or asymmetrical symmetry?

What symmetry does hydra have?

What kind of symmetry does a jellyfish have?
Jellyfish have radial symmetry.Jellyfish are a part of a group called Cnidarians and the have Radial Symmetry.radial symmatry. . . Means all planes about longitudinal axis wil give you two equal halves. .
What is radial symmetry?
When something has symmetry in a radial (circular) pattern.
