Every animal has a distinct body plan. Which of these animals has a radially symmetrical body plan?

Answer
A
Image with description A crab.
B
Image with description A ladybug.
C
Image with description Coral.
D
Image with description A sea sponge.

Explanation

Coral polyps have body parts arranged around a central axis, giving them radial symmetry. A crab and a ladybug have bilateral symmetry, with left and right sides that roughly mirror each other; most sponges have no definite symmetry. Therefore, the correct choice is coral.
