General Information
Term determination of bilateral symmetry ID (Ontology) GO:0009855 (Gene Ontology)
Definition The establishment of an organism's body plan or part of an organism with respect to a single longitudinal plane. The pattern can either be symmetric, such that the halves are mirror images, or asymmetric where the pattern deviates from this symmetry.
Also Known As "determination of bilateral asymmetry"
