Does a dog have radial symmetry?

Answer 1

A wild boar is bilaterally symmetrical. Other examples: Primates (including humans), alligators, butterflies and moths, snakes (but not always their markings), and bats.

Bilateral refers to symmetry where the left side is virtually the mirror image of the right side.

Radial refers to symmetry where each element is arranged in a circular pattern, radiating from the center; such that any plane bisecting the center, divides the pattern into two equal parts. Examples: daisies, anemones, urchins, corals, mushrooms, and jelly fish.

Answer 2

Wolves, like all mammals and other vertebrates, have bilateral symmetry. 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.

Answer 3

Externally, dogs (and also humans) have bilateral symmetry. Internally there are some organs that are on left or right but not both, so there is not internal symmetry.

Answer 4

No, it has a bilateral symmetry.

Answer 5

A red fox is bilaterally symmetrical.

Answer 6

A worm has bilateral symmetry.
