Title:

Sunflowers 5

Description:

Sunflowers represent different things to different people groups around the world. It is fascinating how so many cultures have adopted the sunflower and ascribed it meaning, even though the plant is not native to their area. For example, the Chinese associate the sunflower with longevity. In Ukraine and Russia, sunflowers represent peace and optimism, and Ukraine adopted the flower as its national flower. Sunflowers were also sacred to the ancient Incan people as a representation of their sun god, Inti. In England, sunflowers represent gratitude, while they represent loyalty and devotion in Greece. Though sunflowers have been assigned a variety of meanings, everything the sunflower represents is positive – PowerPoint PPT presentation

Mathematical biologists love sunflowers. The
giant flowers are one of the most obviousas well
as the prettiestdemonstrations of a hidden
mathematical rule shaping the patterns of life
the Fibonacci sequence, a set in which each
number is the sum of the previous two (1, 1, 2,
3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377, 610,
...), found in everything from pineapples to pine
cones. In this case, the telltale sign is the
number of different seed spirals on the
sunflower's face. Count the clockwise and
counterclockwise spirals that reach the outer
edge, and you'll usually find a pair of numbers
from the sequence 34 and 55, or 55 and 89,
orwith very large sunflowers89 and 144.

Galileo Galilei (1564-1642) - Il Saggiatore (The
Assayer) The universe cannot be read until
we have learnt the language and become familiar
with the characters in which it is written. It is
written in mathematical language, and the letters
are triangles, circles and other geometrical
figures, without which means it is humanly
impossible to comprehend a single word. In
short "God wrote the universe in mathematical
language. The sunflower seed pattern used by
the National Museum of Mathematics (New York
City) contains many spirals. If you count the
spirals in a consistent manner, you will always
find a Fibonacci number (0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13,
21, 34, 55, ). Below are the three most natural
ways to find spirals in this pattern. Note that
the black pattern is identical in all the images
on this page. Only the coloured lines indicating
the selected spirals are different.
The red lines show 34 spirals of seeds
The green lines show 55 spirals of seeds
The blue lines show 21 spirals of seeds
