The Fibonacci Sequence in
Nature

BY SEHYOGUE AULAKH

Leonardo Fibonacci
Fibonacci was an Italian mathematician who discovered a very
special sequence of numbers that is known as The Fibonacci
Sequence.

The Fibonacci Sequence is 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, etc. Basically
you add 2 consecutive numbers starting at 0 to get a new number.
These sequences are found everywhere in nature, humans, music and
art.

Pine cones

Pine cones show excellent Fibonacci sequences. Here
there are 8 clockwise and 13 anticlockwise spirals (both
Fibonacci numbers). If you look at a pinecone from the
side, each level has a certain number of scales that match
a Fibonacci number. Pinecones are not alone...

Just about every plant or animal is governed by
Fibonacci numbers! Here's another example.

Garden daisies usually have 34 petals. Other
types of daisies have 55 or 89 petals. All these
numbers are Fib numbers.

Another flower example...
This is a coneflower. The number of spirals in the flower head
going clockwise and anticlockwise are consecutive Fibonacci
numbers.

Vegetables and Fruits
Broccoli and cauliflower are the main two vegetables that show the
Fibonacci sequence in the spiralling of the florets. Some fruits
show the Fibonacci sequence such as star fruit, pineapple and
dragonfruit.
