Q
Q: What is the primary evolutionary advantage of bilateral symmetry in animals?
Solution:
Bilateral symmetry allows for increased mobility and streamlined movement, which is advantageous for predation and escape.
Steps: 5
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand what bilateral symmetry means. It means the body can be divided into two equal halves on either side of a central line.
Step 2: Recognize that animals with bilateral symmetry have a front (head) and back (tail) end.
Step 3: Realize that this body shape helps animals move more efficiently in a straight line.
Step 4: Note that increased mobility helps animals chase after food (predation) or run away from danger (escape).
Step 5: Conclude that having a streamlined body shape is beneficial for survival in their environment.
