Left panel: Net accretion rate onto the galactic disk within the last 1 Gyr for our selected sample of disk-like galaxies at the five different specific redshift z = 2, 1.5, 1, 0.5, and 0. Middle panel: Total galaxy star formation rate. Right panel: Star formation rate within the galactic disk, where the disk is defined as described in Sect. 2.3. We divide our galaxies into lopsided and symmetric, using the threshold A₁ = 0.1. Shaded areas are defined by the 25th–75th interquartile range of the data at each redshift.
