Metamerism :: Metamerism (n.) The symmetry of a metameric structure; serial symmetry; the state of being made up of metameres.

Symmetry :: Symmetry (n.) The law of likeness; similarity of structure; regularity in form and arrangement; orderly and similar distribution of parts, such that an animal may be divided into parts which are structurally symmetrical..

Bilateral :: Bilateral (a.) Of or pertaining to the two sides of a central area or organ, or of a central axis; as, bilateral symmetry in animals, where there is a similarity of parts on the right and left sides of the body..

Hemihedral :: Hemihedral (a.) Having half of the similar parts of a crystals, instead of all; consisting of half the planes which full symmetry would require, as when a cube has planes only on half of its eight solid angles, or one plane out of a pair on each of its edges; or as in the case of a tetrahedron, which is hemihedral to an octahedron, it being contained under four of the planes of an octahedron..

Mimical :: Mimical (a.) Imitative; characterized by resemblance to other forms; -- applied to crystals which by twinning resemble simple forms of a higher grade of symmetry.

Tetartohedral :: Tetartohedral (a.) Having one fourth the number of planes which are requisite to complete symmetry.

Proportion :: Proportion (v.) To form with symmetry or suitableness, as the parts of the body..

Dissymmetry :: Dissymmetry (n.) Absence or defect of symmetry; asymmetry.

Buttress :: Buttress (n.) A projecting mass of masonry, used for resisting the thrust of an arch, or for ornament and symmetry..

Well-set :: Well-set (a.) Well put together; having symmetry of parts.

Symmetrical :: Symmetrical (a.) Involving or exhibiting symmetry; proportional in parts; having its parts in due proportion as to dimensions; as, a symmetrical body or building..

Asymmetry :: Asymmetry (n.) Want of symmetry, or proportion between the parts of a thing, esp. want of bilateral symmetry..

Elegantly :: Elegantly (adv.) In a manner to please nice taste; with elegance; with due symmetry; richly.

Amphineura :: Amphineura (n. pl.) A division of Mollusca remarkable for the bilateral symmetry of the organs and the arrangement of the nerves.

Proportion :: Proportion (n.) Harmonic relation between parts, or between different things of the same kind; symmetrical arrangement or adjustment; symmetry; as, to be out of proportion..

Symmetrized :: Symmetrist (n.) One eminently studious of symmetry of parts.

Holohedral :: Holohedral (a.) Having all the planes required by complete symmetry, -- in opposition to hemihedral..

Asymmetry :: Asymmetry (n.) Incommensurability.

Kite :: Kite (n.) A quadrilateral, one of whose diagonals is an axis of symmetry..

Shapeless :: Shapeless (a.) Destitute of shape or regular form; wanting symmetry of dimensions; misshapen; -- opposed to shapely.
