Definition
The quality or state of lacking symmetry; asymmetry or lack of balanced proportion.
Etymology
From dis- (opposite) + symmetry (from Greek syn- 'together' + metron 'measure'). The term was adopted in scientific contexts to describe the absence of balanced form.
Kelly Says
Louis Pasteur's groundbreaking work on molecular dissymmetry showed that the 'handedness' of molecules (which direction they twist) is one of life's defining characteristics—all sugars in living things are right-handed, not left-handed.
