Bees, like all arthropods, have bilateral symmetry. This means they have 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 type of symmetry is called bilateral symmetry. It means that an animal's body can be divided into two equal halves along a single plane, typically the midline, resulting in mirror images.
Bilateral symmetry. This means that the animal's body can be divided into two equal halves along a single plane.
Bilateral symmetry enables faster movement compared to radial symmetry. Bilateral symmetry allows for a distinct head region and front-back orientation, which enables more efficient and streamlined movement in a specific direction. Radial symmetry, found in organisms like jellyfish, does not have a clear directionality and typically results in slower movements.

Bilateral symmetry includes both an anterior (front) end and a posterior (back) end, where the body can be divided into two symmetrical halves along a central axis. This type of symmetry is commonly seen in animals that have a distinct head and tail region.
One type of symmetry is rotation. The second type of symmetry is translation. The third type of symmetry is reflection.
