  • (20) When required to rotate through exactly twice 360 degrees clockwise (rightwards) or anticlockwise (leftwards) with reduced sensory input, dextrals, especially females, showed a rightwards bias and sinistrals a leftwards tendency.

Levorotatory


Definition:

  • (a.) Turning or rotating the plane of polarization towards the left; levogyrate, as levulose, left-handed quartz crystals, etc.

Example Sentences:
