From there, chordates are split up into their class. These classes include amphibians, birds, reptiles, mammals, many classes of fish and a few other classes. The goldfish and 96% of all fish happens to fit the Actinopterygil Class, a ray-finned fish (webs of skin that are supported by bony/horny spines).

What kind of symmetry does a scorpion have?
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.
