Biologically, why does a large percentage of nature have symmetry?

Specificaly, most life forms show horizontal symmetry. Is there a biological or evolutionary explaination for this?

I could only think that DNA may save space by recording only half of the body and then duplicating it. ( I know our insides aren’t perfectly symmetrical, but you get the point)
