What kind of snails is this?

Hello I live in Arizona, though it would be impossible for the snails to survive here, but found only 2 small cone snails with shells I think are the cone snails, but I want your opinion, thanks.

Yes, you may come snails to live in hot climates because they have a very wet body, if a snail with a layer of cone is a cone snail.

The measure of beauty created by nature: the Golden Ratio

Allah has appointed a measure of all things. (Surat al-Talaq, 3)

â € | You will find no fault in creating the All-Merciful. Look again-do you see any gaps? Look again and again. His vision will return to you tired and exhausted! (Surat al-Mulk, 3-4)

… If a nice and very balanced form is achieved in terms of elements of the application or function, then we can seek a function of the number of gold there … The number of gold is not a product of mathematical imagination, but a natural principle related to the laws balance. (1)

What do the pyramids in Egypt, Leonardo do Vinci's portrait of the Mona Lisa, sunflowers, the snail, pineapple and fingers all have in common?

The answer to this question lies hidden in a sequence of numbers discovered by the Italian mathematician Fibonacci. The characteristic of these numbers, known as the Fibonacci numbers is that each is the sum of the two numbers before it. (2)

L. Pisano Fibonacci
Fibonacci numbers

0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377, 610, 987, 1597, 2584, â € |

Fibonacci numbers have an interesting property. When you divide a number in the sequence by the number before, you get a number very close to each other. In fact, this number is determined from the 13th in the series. This number is known as the "Golden Ratio".

Golden Ratio = 1.618

233 / 144 = 1.618

377 / 233 = 1.618

610 / 377 = 1,618

987 / 610 = 1.618

1597 / 987 = 1.618

2584 / 1597 = 1.618

THE HUMAN BODY AND THE RELATIONSHIP OF GOLD

In conducting their research or the creation of their products, artists, scientists and designers take the human body, the proportions of which are set according to the golden ratio, as its measure. Leonardo da Vinci and Le Corbusier took the human body proportions according to the proportion of gold, as their measure when producing their designs. The human body, proportion according to the golden ratio, it also builds on the Neufert, one of the most important reference book for architects today.

Leonardo da Vinci used the golden ratio in determining the proportions of the human body.

THE RELATIONSHIP OF GOLD IN THE HUMAN BODY

The "ideal" proportional relations that are suggested as existing among various parts of the average human body and that approximately meet the values of the ratio gold can be established in a general plan as follows: (3)

The M / m level in the table below is always equivalent to the golden ratio. M / m = 1.618

The first example of the golden ratio in the average human body is that when the distance between the navel and the foot is equal to 1 unit, the height of a being human is equivalent to 1.618. Some other golden proportions in the average human body are:

The distance between the tip of finger and elbow / distance between the wrist and elbow,
The distance between the shoulder line and the top of the head / head length,
The distance between the navel and the top head / the distance between the shoulder line and the top of the head,
The distance between the navel and knee / distance between the knee and the end foot.

The human hand

Raise your hand the computer mouse and see how your index finger. You most probably saw a proportion golden.

Our fingers have three sections. The proportion of the first two to the total length of the finger gives the golden ratio (with the exception of thumbs). You can also see that the proportion of the middle finger of the little finger is also a golden ratio. (4)

You have two hands and fingers on them consist of three sections. There are five fingers on each hand, and only eight of these are articulated according to the golden number: 2, 3, 5, and 8 fit the numbers Fibonacci.

The Golden Ratio in the human face

There are several reasons for gold in the human face. Do not pick a rule and try to measure people's faces, however, because this refers to the "ideal human face" determined by scientists and artists.

For example, the total width of the two incisors in the mandible more than their height gives a golden ratio. The width of the first tooth from the center to the second tooth also yields a golden ratio. These are the proportions ideals that a dentist may consider. Some other golden proportions in the human face are:

Length of face / width of face,
Distance between the lips and eyebrows meet / length of nose,
Length of face / distance between tip of jaw and eyebrows meet,
Length of mouth / width of nose,
Width of nose / distance between nostrils,
Distance between pupils / distance between eyebrows.

Golden Proportion in the Lungs

In a study conducted between 1985 and 1987 (5), the American physicist BJ West and Dr. Al Goldberger revealed the existence of the relationship of gold in the structure lung. One of the characteristics of the network of the bronchi, which is the lung which is asymmetrical. For example, the trachea divides into two bronchi, one long (the left) and one short (right). This asymmetrical division continues into the subsequent subdivisions of the bronchi. (6) found that in all these divisions the proportion of the short bronchus to the long always 1/1.618.

The golden rectangle and the spiral design

A rectangle the proportion of whose sides is equal to the proportion of gold is known as a rectangle of "gold". A rectangle whose sides are 1.618 and 1 units of length is a golden rectangle. Suppose a square drawn along the length of the short side of this rectangle and draw a quarter circle between two corners of the square. So let's draw a square and a quarter circle on the left and do this for all remaining rectangles in the main rectangle. Doing this can end with a spiral.

The British beautician William Charlton explains the way that people find the spiral pleasing and have been using for thousands of years indicates that we find spirals pleasing because they are easy to visually follow them. (7)

The spirals based on the golden ratio contain the most incomparable designs you can find in nature. The first examples we can give of this are the spiral sequences on the sunflower and pineapple. Besides this, a perfect example of the creation of Allah Almighty and many living as He has created everything with a measure, the growth process of things also takes place in a logarithmic spiral. The curves of the spiral are always the same and the main form never changes no matter their size. There is no way in mathematics have this property. (8)

The Design in Sea Shells

The flawless design in the nautilus shell contains the golden ratio.
When investigating the shells of living things classified as mollusks, which live on the seafloor, the shape and structure of internal and external surfaces of the shells attracted scientists' attention:

The interior surface is smooth, the outside is striped. The mollusk body is inside shell and the inner surface of shells should be smooth. The edges outer shell to increase the stiffness of the deposits and thus increase its strength. Shell forms astonish by their perfection and profitability of the resources spent on creation. The idea of spiral shells is expressed in the perfect geometric shape, the startling beauty, "sharp" design. (9)

The shells of most mollusks grow in a logarithmic spiral. There can be no doubt, of course, that these animals are unaware of calculation, even the simplest mathematics, to say nothing of logarithmic spirals. So how is that the creatures in question can know that this is the best way to grow? How do these animals, which some scientists describe as "primitive," know that this is the ideal way for them? It is impossible for the growth of this type to be held in the absence of a consciousness or intellect. That consciousness exists neither in mollusks nor, despite what some scientists claim, in nature same. It is totally irrational to try to explain it in terms of opportunity. This design can only be a product of superior intelligence and knowledge, and belongs Allah Almighty, the Creator of all things:

"My Lord encompasses all things in their knowledge so that it will not pay attention?" (Quran, An'am, 80)

Growth of this type was described as "gnomic growth" by the biologist Sir D'Arcy Thompson, an expert in the subject, who said it was impossible to imagine a simpler system, during the growth of a seashell, which is based on the expansion and extension online with identical and unchanging proportions. As noted, the shell is always growing, but its shape remains the same. (10)

You can see one of the best Examples of this type of growth in a nautilus, just a few centimeters in diameter. C. Morrison describes this growth process, which is exceptionally difficult plan, even with human intelligence, stating that along the nautilus shell, an internal spiral extends consisting of a series of chambers with mother-of-pearl siding. As the animal grows, it builds another chamber in the shell mouth larger than the previous one, and moves forward into this larger area, closing the door behind her with a layer of mother-of-pearl. (11)

The scientific names of some other marine creatures with logarithmic spirals contains the different growth rates in their shells are:

Haliotis Parvus, Dolium Perdix, Murex, Fusus antiquus, Scalaria Pretiosa, Solarium Trochleare.

Ammonites, extinct sea animals that are found today only in the form of fossil deposits were also developing in logarithmic spiral form.

Spiral growth in the animal world is not limited to the shells of molluscs. Animals such as antelopes, goats and sheep to complete their horn development in spiral on the basis of the golden ratio. (12)

The Golden Ratio in hearing and balance organs

The cochlea of the ear human internal serves to transmit sound vibrations. This bony structure, filled with fluid, has a logarithmic spiral shape with a fixed angle of? = 73A ° 43 'which contains the golden ratio.

Horns and teeth that grow in a spiral

Examples of curves based on the logarithmic spiral can be seen in the tusks of elephants and the now extinct mammoth, lions' claws and beaks of parrots. The spider spins its web eperia always in a logarithmic spiral. Among the microorganisms known as plankton, the bodies of globigerinae, Planorbis, Vortex, Terebra, turitellae and trails are all built in a spiral.

RELATIONSHIP GOLD IN THE MICRO WORLD

Geometrical shapes are by no means limited to triangles, squares, pentagons and hexagons. These forms can also be together in various ways and produce new three-dimensional geometric shapes. The cube and the pyramid are the first examples can be cited. Besides these, however, also There's nothing like three-dimensional shapes as the tetrahedron (with regular four faces), octahedron, dodecahedron and icosahedron, which can never find in our daily lives and whose names do not even may have heard of. The dodecahedron has 12 pentagonal faces and the icosahedron of 20 triangles. Scientists have discovered that all these shapes mathematically can be converted into one another, and that this transformation takes place relations linked to the golden ratio.

Three-dimensional forms that contain the proportion of gold are widespread in microorganisms. Many viruses have a way of icosahedron. The best known of these is the adeno virus. Sheath adeno virus protein subunit consists of 252 protein, all duly established. The 12 subunits in the corners of the icosahedron are in the form of pentagonal prisms. Rod-like structures protrude from these corners.

The first people to discover that the virus came in the forms that contain the golden ratio were Aaron Klug and Donald Caspar from Birkbeck College, London in the early 1950. The first virus they established this was the polio virus. The 14 Rhino virus has the same shape as the polio virus.

Why is that viruses have shapes based on the golden ratio, shapes that is difficult for us even to see in our minds? A. Klug, who discovered these shapes, explains:

My colleague Donald Caspar and demonstrated that the design of these viruses could be explained in terms of a generalization of icosahedral symmetry that allows identical units that are interrelated in an almost equivalent to a small degree of internal flexibility. Enumerate all possible designs, which have similarities to the geodesic domes designed by architect R. Buckminster Fuller. However, whereas Fuller's domes have to be assembled after elaborate a code, the design of the viral envelope allows the construction of self. (14)

Klug's description once again reveals a manifest truth. There is a sensitive planning and intelligent design even in viruses, considered by scientists as "one of the most small, simple living. "(15) This design is much more successful and superior to those of Buckminster Fuller, one of the world's most eminent architects.

The dodecahedron and icosahedron also appear in the silica skeletons of radiolarians, single-celled marine organisms.

Structures based on these two forms geometric, like the regular dodecahedron with feet-like structures protruding from each corner, and the various formations on their surfaces up beautiful bodies variable of radiolarians. (16)

Examples of these organizations, less than a millimeter in size, one may cite the icosahedron based Circigonia icosahedron and the dodecahedron with Circorhegma dodecahedron skeleton. (17)

The Golden Ratio in DNA

The molecule that stores all the physical characteristics of living beings, too, has created a form based on the proportion of gold. The DNA molecule, the same program of life, is based on the proportion of gold. The DNA consists of two intertwined perpendicular helixes. The length of the curve in each of these helixes is 34 angstroms and the width of 21 angstroms. (1 angstrom is one hundred millionth of an inch.) 21 and 34 are two consecutive Fibonacci numbers.

The Golden Ratio in Snow Crystals

The golden ratio also manifests itself in crystal structures. Most of these structures are too small to be seen with the naked eye. However, you can see the proportion gold snowflakes. The various long and short variations and protrusions that form the snowflake give all the golden ratio. (18)

THE RELATIONSHIP OF GOLD SPACE

In the universe there are many spiral galaxies containing the golden ratio in their structures.

The Golden Ratio in Physics

You encounter Fibonacci series and the proportion of gold in areas that fall within the scope of physics. When a light is held over two contiguous layers of glass, a portion of light passes through, one part is absorbed, and the rest is reflected. What happens is a "multiple reflection. The number of paths taken by lightning inside the cup before going back on the number of reflections it is subjected. In conclusion, when determining the number of rays that re-emerge, we find that are compatible with the Fibonacci numbers.

The fact that a large number of animate or inanimate structures in nature are alien in the form of According to a specific mathematical formula is one of the clearest evidence that these have been specially designed. The golden ratio is an aesthetic rule known and applied by artists. Works of art on the basis of this ratio represent aesthetic perfection. Plants, galaxies, micro-organisms, crystals and living things designed according to this rule imitated by artists are all examples of Allah's superior art. Allah in the Qur'an reveals that He created all things a measure. Some of these verses read:

â € | Allah has appointed a measure of all things. (Surat al-Talaq, 3)

â € | Everything has its measure with him. (Quran, Ra'd,
