Fibonacci sequence
Hexagonal series
Magic Square series

Answer 1

The pattern of 'florets' in the head of a sunflower and the ‘fruitlets’ of a pineapple follow the Fibonacci sequence.

A fibonacci sequence is a form of sequence in which each number is the addition of the last two numbers.

The Fibonacci sequence starts with 0 and 1.

For example: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55…

The expression of this sequence is:

$= > X_{n} = \: X_{n - 1} + X_{n - 2}$

we can find the Fibonacci sequence in nature in the form of petals of a flower.
