The term laterality refers to asymmetric preference, usage, skill, or specialization of symmetric body parts in an organism. Humans exhibit laterality in many ways, including limb dominance such as left and right handedness and footedness as well as specialization of one brain hemisphere over the other for certain functions such as language.
