Answer :-

The system in which the body of an organism can be divided into two equal halves, is known as "Bilateral symmetry".

Eg - Human body

Extra Information :-

  • Bilateral symmetry can be applied to the organisms that can be divided along a longitudinal or "sagittal plane" into two mirrored portions.

  • The organisms which follow the rules of bilateral symmetry, are proved to have much better directional (forward) movements than the organisms which follow the rules of radial symmetry.

  • The phenomenon of Bilateral symmetry is strongly associated with "*Cephalization".

  • The organisms which follow the rules of bilateral symmetry, are collectively known as "Bilateria".

  • Cephalization refers to the modification of the anterior or oral end of organisms into definite head like structures.
