Answer: The answer is (A). Translational.

Step-by-step explanation: In the given figure, a section of a tessellated plane is shown. We are to select out of the given choices the type of symmetry tessellated plane have.

We can easily see in the figure that the tessellated plane is shifted by some units to the right without any other change. And, if the translated plane is again shifted to the left by same number of units, we will get the original plane again. Therefore, there is translational symmetry.

There is no rotation, reflection or glide reflection.

Thus, the correct answer is (A).
