SymmetryIn a typical human , the following similarities can be observed:
The corresponding fingers of each hand (on the OPPOSITE side of the body) are roughly identical in length and shape;
The same relationship exists concerning the size and shape of the hands, arms, shoulders, ribs, legs, knees, ankles, feet, toes, eyes, ears, and nostrils.
Additionally, the eyes and ears are located in the same relative positions on both sides of the face. Also, the corresponding teeth in the upper and lower jaw are roughly identical in structure.
This symmetry is not just applicable to the human body but practically almost all animals - all primates, all mammals, all terrestrial vertebrates, even fish.
