In the diplo- blastic animals, Porifera and Ccelenterata, the symmetry is radial, that is, the parts are symmetrically arranged in imaginary planes which pass through a common axis (Fig. 80). Such organisms appear to be ineffectively oriented for locomotion and this type of symmetry is not extensively characteristic of animals. Plants, how-.
