It is assumed that the molecules move in random directions and as a consequence, there is an equal probability of a molecule moving in any direction. Thus when there are many molecules in the gas, with high probability there will be very similar numbers moving in one direction as any other, demonstrating approximate isotropy. Fluid dynamics
Think of one enantiomer in a solution as a large number of little helices (or screws), all right-handed, but in random orientations. Birefringence of this sort is possible even in a fluid because the handedness of the helices is not dependent on their orientation: even when the direction of one helix is reversed, it still appears right handed.
In contrast, they do not respond at all to the opposite direction, "null direction". The preferred direction is not dependent on the stimulus—that is, regardless of the stimulus' size, shape, or color, the neurons respond when it is moving in their preferred direction, and do not respond if it is moving in the null direction.
WMAP image of the (extremely tiny) anisotropies in the cosmic microwave background radiation. Anisotropy (/ ˌ æ n aɪ ˈ s ɒ t r ə p i, ˌ æ n ɪ-/) is the structural property of non-uniformity in different directions, as opposed to isotropy.
