Correct Answer: Both I and II


Solution : The correct option is Both I and II.

Radial symmetry is a type of symmetry that is characterised by a plane that passes through the central axis of an organism's body, dividing it into two identical halves. This type of symmetry is commonly seen in organisms such as jellyfish and sea anemones. On the other hand, bilateral symmetry is when an organism can be divided into two identical left and right halves in only one plane. This type of symmetry is observed in many animals including humans.
