Dorsal

Dorsal:

Imagine you're organizing your closet and trying to decide which clothes to keep on the top shelf, where they're easily accessible. Just like you prioritize placing your favorite or most-used items on the top, organisms have a "top" side, known as the dorsal side, which is often adapted for specific functions like protection or camouflage. In both scenarios, the "top" position—whether it's the top shelf of a closet or the dorsal side of an organism—serves a strategic purpose, highlighting the importance of positioning for functionality and efficiency.
