Bilateral symmetry means something has symmetry across one plane (known as the sagittal plane, and directly down the centre of their body), which means one side of their body approximately mirrors the other side. This is evident in all vertebrates (birds, mammals, fish, reptiles and amphibians) and arthropods (crustaceans, insects, arachnids, etc.).

Radial symmetry is symmetry that occurs in a radial, or circular fashion, repeating around the centre of the body, e.g. jellyfish. in radial symmetry, the organism can be divided into similar halveplaned inviting it at any angle along a central axis.
