Scientists say they may have solved the mystery of “handedness” and why some people have a dominant left or right hand.
Based on research, it seems the main determining factor in whether you are left- or right-handed is a phenomenon known as chirality.
Chirality is essentially chemical reactions that normally produce an equal mix of two forms.
But scientists never really understood why certain proteins and amino acids in DNA and RNA could always string together to determine your handedness.
