How to use "Asymmetry" in context?
There is something strikingly different about every living thing. Whether it be the way a flower sways in the wind or the way a pine tree rustles in the cold, something about each of these organisms compelled humans to study their asymmetry. While symmetry is often seen as the baseline form in nature, asymmetry is the predominant structure of the world around us.
There are many interesting asymmetric structures around us. One of the most striking examples can be seen in the human body. Our bodies are composed of symmetric halves, but they are asymmetric when viewed from the front or the back.
