Assume that a pencil box held in your hand represents a plant cell. In how many possible planes can it be cut? Indicate these cuts with the help of line drawings.
Assuming a plant cell division it can be cut vertically, horizontally and diagonally.
Thus, it can be cut into three planes, through three axes, i.e., x, y and z.
When any plane passes through the central axis of the plant cell, it divides the cell into two identical halves; it is called Radial Symmetry (figure below shows radial symmetry)
If the plant cell can be divided into identical left and right halves in only one vertical plane, exhibit bilateral symmetry (figure below shows bilateral symmetry)
