Recently, it was published
the book “Electromagnetic Unification of Four Forces” (ISBN
978-3-659-76798-2), compiling the progressions in
physics manifested in television, made by the world people while led notably by
the author and the members in the world satellite networks from India, Zhejiang
and USA. Besides these significant achievements, it has also been made many
activities and achievements on neural sciences. In this article, it is relayed,
via the author as the main holder of them, a new hypothesis raised by a Chinese
Member of satellite group, which has also been manifested in television
already, but required to be transformed into written form for scientists to
read and cite. It was newly suggested that the advantage of asymmetrical handedness
might correlate to its long-term cooperation with heartbeat during muscular contraction and limb
movement. It is in further supported herein by the evidence in followings: 1)
the developmental canalization to heart asymmetry in vertebrate evolution; 2)
the decreased survival fitness of left-handedness from coronary artery disease;
3) the higher frequencies of heart irregularities in individuals of left
handedness than right handedness; 4) the laterality of brain in control of
heart rate variability. It is additionally speculated that the asymmetry of
heart in fish without limb might likewise correlate to the long-term
compatibility between the heartbeat and contralateral muscular contraction. In
this regard, it is concluded that this hypothesis from the Chinese Member of
satellite group may become an important solution toward understanding the advantage
of both bodily and brain asymmetry.
