Electric field due to a single charge is
The electric field due to a single point charge is spherically symmetric because the field radiates uniformly outward (for a positive charge) or inward (for a negative charge) in all directions from the charge. The magnitude of the field depends only on the distance from the charge, not on direction.
Thus, the correct answer is (c) spherically symmetric.
