We present an analysis of the chiral property of 1 621 field galaxies having radial velocity 3 000 km s ^ { -1 } to 5 000 km s ^ { -1 } . A correlation between the chiral symmetry breaking and the preferred alignment of galaxies in the leading and trailing structural modes is studied using chi-square , auto-correlation and the Fourier tests . We noticed a good agreement between the random alignment of the position angle ( PA ) distribution and the existence of chirality in both the leading and trailing arm galaxies . Chirality is found stronger for the late-type spirals ( Sc , Scd , Sd and Sm ) than that of the early-types ( Sa , Sab , Sb and Sbc ) . A significant dominance ( 17 % \pm 8.5 % ) of trailing modes is noticed in the barred spirals . In addition , chirality of field galaxies is found to remain invariant under the global expansion . The PA-distribution of the total trailing arm galaxies is found to be random , whereas preferred alignment is noticed for the total leading arm galaxies . It is found that the rotation axes of leading arm galaxies tend to be oriented perpendicular the equatorial plane . A random alignment is noticed in the PA-distribution of leading and trailing spirals .
