Mathematics in Nature: Intelligent Design

The document discusses mathematics in nature and intelligent design. [1] It notes that mathematics can be seen everywhere in nature, including symmetrical patterns in leaves and seashells. [2] It raises questions about how these mathematical patterns form in nature and how chaos and self-similarity theories relate. [3] The author used to think mathematics was just about numbers, but now realizes it can provide aesthetic beauty through intelligent patterns and designs in the world.

Mathematics in Nature Proves Intelligent Design

1. Three things that I significantly learned from the video clips

 Mathematics is everywhere. It may not be the most favorite and liked


subject by most of us but we cannot deny the fact that math greatly
influence our world. Even the nature can attest to that.

 Mathematics provide symmetric and beautiful patterns in our environment


that we often not acknowledge like a leave pattern or seashell curves.

 Mathematical intelligent patterns in our environment can be explain by


certain theories like self-similar theories and chaos theories.

2. Three things that are still unclear to me

 How mathematical patterns are form in our environment like in leaf? Is


there scientific explanation for that?

 How the chaos and self-similarity theory are related to the mathematical
patterns form in our environment?

 How do we consider an intelligent mathematical pattern in our


environment? Is it always symmetrical?

3. I used to think that

 Patterns found in our nature proves that mathematics is not just about
numbers, it gave intelligent design that we see like how ferns form its
shape. I used to think that numbers is just all about numbers, equations
and problem solving. Now, I realize that the beauty of mathematics is
diverse- it could also gave aesthetic beauties to our world by providing
intelligent patterns and designs.
4. Three things that I want to ask about the video clips

 How are these intelligent designs found in our nature be useful for
everyone? Is there any practical use?

 Aside from the leaves, shells and snow fractals mentioned or showed in
the video, what other natural patterns can be associated with math?

 Can these mathematical patterns in nature be applied in other fields like


engineering, architecture etc.?
