Examples of pentaradial symmetry in the following topics:
-
- Echinoderms are invertebrates that have pentaradial symmetry, a spiny skin, a water vascular system, and a simple nervous system.
- Adult echinoderms exhibit pentaradial symmetry and have a calcareous endoskeleton made of ossicles, although the early larval stages of all echinoderms have bilateral symmetry .
- The ring canal connects the radial canals (there are five in a pentaradial animal), and the radial canals move water into the ampullae, which have tube feet through which the water moves.
-
- Of all echinoderms, the Ophiuroidea may have the strongest tendency toward 5-segment radial (pentaradial) symmetry.
- Their early larvae have bilateral symmetry, but they develop fivefold symmetry as they mature.
- Several sea urchins, however, including the sand dollars, are oval in shape, with distinct front and rear ends, giving them a degree of bilateral symmetry.
- Although the basic echinoderm pattern of fivefold symmetry can be recognized, most crinoids have many more than five arms.
- Sea cucumbers are the only echinoderms that demonstrate "functional" bilateral symmetry as adults, as they lie horizontally as opposed to the vertical axis of other echinoderms.
-
- Animals that possess bilateral symmetry can be divided into two groups, protostomes and deuterostomes, based on their patterns of embryonic development.
- Echinoderms are invertebrate marine animals that have pentaradial symmetry and a spiny body covering; the phylum includes sea stars, sea urchins, and sea cucumbers.
-
- Animals can be classified by three types of body plan symmetry: radial symmetry, bilateral symmetry, and asymmetry.
- In contrast to radial symmetry, which is best suited for stationary or limited-motion lifestyles, bilateral symmetry allows for streamlined and directional motion.
- Animals in the phylum Echinodermata (such as sea stars, sand dollars, and sea urchins) display radial symmetry as adults, but their larval stages exhibit bilateral symmetry .
- This is termed secondary radial symmetry.
- The larvae of echinoderms (sea stars, sand dollars, and sea urchins) have bilateral symmetry as larvae, but develop radial symmetry as full adults.
-
- They can have symmetry after a reflection.
- In the next graph below, quadratic functions have symmetry over a line called the axis of symmetry.
- The graph has symmetry over the origin or point $(0,0)$.
- This type of symmetry is a translation over an axis.
- Determine whether or not a given relation shows some form of symmetry
-
- Some examples of symmetry elementsare shown below.
- In these two cases the point of symmetry is colored magenta.
- The boat conformation of cyclohexane shows an axis of symmetry (labeled C2 here) and two intersecting planes of symmetry (labeled σ).
- The existence of a reflective symmetry element (a point or plane of symmetry) is sufficient to assure that the object having that element is achiral.
- (ii) Asymmetry: The absence of all symmetry elements.
-
- Think of pitch symmetry in terms of a musical "mirror."
- Pitch symmetry always implies an axis of symmetry.
- The pitch-space line shows that it has a different axis of symmetry—around E2.
- Pitch-class symmetry is very similar to pitch symmetry, but understood in pitch-class space.
- Mapping this on the pitch-class circle shows the passage's pitch-class symmetry.
-
- Animal body plans follow set patterns related to symmetry.
- Asymmetrical animals are those with no pattern or symmetry, such as a sponge.
- Bilateral symmetry is illustrated in a goat.
- Animals exhibit different types of body symmetry.
- The sponge is asymmetrical, the sea anemone has radial symmetry, and the goat has bilateral symmetry.
-
- The trigonometric symmetry identities are based on principles of even and odd functions that can be observed in their graphs.
- This symmetry is used to derive certain identities.
- The following symmetry identities are useful in finding the trigonometric function of a negative value.
- Cosine and secant are even functions, with symmetry around the $y$-axis.
- Explain the trigonometric symmetry identities using the graphs of the trigonometric functions
-
- The opposite is true for the π*-orbital on the right, which has a mirror plane symmetry of A and a C2 symmetry of S.
- Such symmetry characteristics play an important role in creating the orbital diagrams used by Woodward and Hoffmann to rationalize pericyclic reactions.
- The symmetries of the appropriate reactant and product orbitals were matched to determine whether the transformation could proceed without a symmetry imposed conversion of bonding reactant orbitals to antibonding product orbitals.
- If the correlation diagram indicated that the reaction could occur without encountering such a symmetry-imposed barrier, it was termed symmetry allowed.
- If a symmetry barrier was present, the reaction was designated symmetry-forbidden.
