Animal body plans

Ch.4 L.2

QuestionAnswer
Tissue A group of similar cells that perform a specific function.
Organ A body structure that is composed of different kinds 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 mirror images.
Bilateral symmetry A body plan in which a single imaginary line divides the body into left and right sides that are mirror images of each other.
Animal's body plan The organization of an animal's cells into higher levels of structure, including tissues, organs, and organ systems, helps to describe an animal's body plan.
How structure of animals are related to their symmetry. Bodies of animals without symmetry are organized simply, with some specialized cells but no tissues. In contrast, animals with radial symmetry have complex body plans with tissues and usually with organ system. Animals with bilateral symmetry have organ
What asymmetrical body type means and example of animal. A body type in which an organism lacks symmetry, meaning it doesn't have a mirror-image quality.
What radial body symmetry means and example animal. An organism's body parts are arranged around a central point, allowing it to be divided into equal halves by any plane passing through the center.
What bilateral body symmetry means and example animal. An organism can be divided into two equal, mirror-image halves along a single plane, creating distinct left and right sides
