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 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. Orientation of body hairs, projections from the surface of an organism, such that the hairs all point in a uniform direction along the surface. Orientation along the body surface of bristles, sensory organs originating from a sensory organ precursor cell, such that they all point in a uniform direction. 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.
