  24. 24 Shear and compression in cortical flow aligns action filaments
  25. 25 Cortical flow aligns action filaments to form a cytokinesic ingression
  26. 26 The cortex generates torques of defined handedness.
  27. 27 Chiral rotating flow
  28. 28 Chirality and L/R symmetry breaking
  29. 29 In higher vertebrates,
  30. 30 The cell cortex has been implied to play a role in instances of left/right symmetry breaking
