Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

Adamsia commonly called Sea anemone is a cnidarian animal.

They are aquatic, mostly marine, sessile or free-swimming, biradially symmetrical animals.

When the body can be divided into two similar halves by one or two vertical planes only, the radial symmetry is called biradial symmetry, it is present in the sea anemone.
