Homochirality refers to the phenomenon where biological molecules, such as amino acids and sugars, exhibit a preferential uniformity in their chirality, meaning they exist in one specific enantiomeric form rather than a mixture of both. In molecular chemistry, chirality describes the property of a molecule that is not superimposable on its mirror image, much like left and right hands.
