The Fibonacci sequence is a mathematical series of numbers that is also known as the Golden Ratio:0,1,1,2,3,5,8 (Fn = Fn-1 + Fn-2). The sequence creates a spiral(the golden angle) that occurs frequently in nature and can be seen in pineapples, waves, shells, etc.

The Fibonacci Spiral is also found in the seeds of sunflowers as the spiral allows for the maximum amount of seeds while still having the seeds spaced evenly.
