Body Axis Specification

Body Axis Specification is the developmental process by which the spatial orientation of the primary body axes (anterior-posterior, dorsal-ventral, and left-right) is established in a multicellular organism, distinguishing it from other patterning events through its role in defining the fundamental coordinate system for subsequent morphogenesis.
