| Tissue | a group of similar cells that perform a specific function |
| Organ | a body structure that is composed of tissues that work together |
| Radial symmetry | a body plan in which any number of imaginary lines that all pass through a central point divide the animal into two minor images |
| Bilateral symmetry | a body plan in which a single imaginary line divides the body into left and right side are minor images of each other |
| Describe an animal's body plan | The organization of an animal's cells into a higher level of structure, including tissues, organs, and organ systems |
| How the structure of animals relates to their symmetry | have balanced display of body parts called symmetry |
| What radial symmetry means give an example | it can divide into two minor images, for example a jelly fish is circular |
| what bilateral symmetry means give an example | it can divide into halves for example a crab can be divided in half and have symmetry |
