Answer:radially symmetrical, bilaterally symmetrical, and asymmetrical.

Explanation:At a very basic level of classification, true animals can be largely divided into three groups based on the type of symmetry of their body plan: radially symmetrical, bilaterally symmetrical, and asymmetrical. Asymmetry is seen in two modern clades, the Parazoa (Figurea) and Placozoa.
