an organism or structure that demonstrates a tendency to turn toward or grow toward the right side.
From dexio- (right) plus -trope (turning), following the pattern of heliotrope or phototrope. Scientific term describing directional growth patterns in biology.
Dexiotropes are the right-handed cousins of phototropic plants—some organisms genuinely prefer turning right, showing that nature's left-right asymmetry goes deeper than just human handedness!
