    The frontal plane, also called the coronal plane, which divides the body into front and back. [2] The horizontal plane, also known as the transverse plane, which is perpendicular to the other two planes. [2] In a human, this plane is parallel to the ground; in a quadruped, this divides the animal into anterior and posterior sections. [3]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetry_in_biology

    Most radially symmetric animals are symmetrical about an axis extending from the center of the oral surface, which contains the mouth, to the center of the opposite (aboral) end. Animals in the phyla Cnidaria and Echinodermata generally show radial symmetry, [7] although many sea anemones and some corals within the Cnidaria have bilateral ...

    These three views are known as front view (also elevation view), top view or plan view and end view (also profile view or section view). When the plane or axis of the object depicted is not parallel to the projection plane, and where multiple sides of an object are visible in the same image, it is called an auxiliary view .
