Coordinated organization of groups of cells in the plane of an epithelium, such that they all orient to similar coordinates. Orientation of hairs or sensory bristles that cover the body surface of an adult, such that they all point in a uniform direction along the plane of the epithelium from which they project. Coordinated organization of groups of cells in the plane of an epithelium that contributes to the shaping of a nephron. Any process that modulates the rate, frequency or extent of the establishment of planar polarity, the coordinated organization of groups of cells in a tissue, such that they all orient to similar coordinates. A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of cytoskeletal structures comprising microtubules and their associated proteins and contributes to the establishment of planar polarity. Any process by which a protein is transported to, and/or maintained in, a specific location in a cell that contributes to the establishment of planar polarity. The attachment of one cell to another cell via adhesion molecules that contributes to the establishment of planar cell polarity. Coordinated organization of groups of cells in the plane of an epithelium that contributes to the closure of the neural tube. Coordinated organization of groups of cells in the plane of a follicular epithelium, such that they all orient to similar coordinates. The process by which anatomical structures are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. The process by which the anatomical structures of a polarized epithelium are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. A polarized epithelium is an epithelium where the epithelial sheet is oriented with respect to the planar axis. The specification of polarized ommatidia. Ommatidia occur in two chiral forms. The trapezoidal arrangement of photoreceptors in the dorsal part of the eye is the mirror image of that in the ventral part. Orientation of hairs in the imaginal disc-derived wing along a proximal-distal axis, such that each cell of the wing produces one wing hair which points in a distal direction. Coordinated organization of groups of cells in a tissue, such that they all orient to similar coordinates. Coordinated organization of groups of cells in the plane of a larval imaginal disc epithelium, such that they all orient to similar coordinates. The process by which the anatomical structures of epithelia are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. An epithelium consists of closely packed cells arranged in one or more layers, that covers the outer surfaces of the body or lines any internal cavity or tube.
