While chirality is true and important, it doesn't really explain things such as sutus inversus. All amino acids are always of the same chirality, because otherwise they cannot be incorporated into proteins. Same for nucleic acids, they have to be built the same way or they won't be able to interact with the proteins. I don't understand how they could start the inversion - and now that I think about it, how the bidy is mirrored on the inside even though they're still the same proteins.

Models are usually chosen for their symmetry. Heres a revealing little thing to do. Take a selfie and make copies; halve the images; take say 2 left halves and flip one of them over then fit them together. Then repeat for the right side images. You should now have 3 facial images: one of how your face would be if you were left side symmetrical, one for the right side and an original of what you actually are. The results can be quite horrendous.

I used to have a sum what normal body and kinda symmetrical face, but now my face is asymmetrical and my body is EXTREMELY asymmetrical. Can anyone tell me what happened ( Im only 14 btw) okay thank you

Ok but the graphic on the thumbnail could be improved because of how difficult it is to read it due to the disorganised approach. I understand that may be the point but ugh

The thing tripping me up the most at the start here is the lungs having a different structure. Here I thought a pair of lungs was the prime example of symmetry but, wow,

I read the thumbnail as, Why is the asymme human body trical? and I was so confused for a few seconds. I should really start having a good amount of sleep everyday.

If you try to put your left hand in your right glove, it wont fit.
Person with 2 right hands on each side of the body: I am 4 parallel universes ahead of you.
