| Nautilus shell cross-section showcasing its logarithmic spiral pattern. The outer shell is smooth, pearlescent beige, while the inner chambers reveal a segmented spiral structure. These chambers, known as camerae, decrease in size towards the center, and are connected by a central siphuncle. The shell's design exemplifies the Fibonacci sequence, commonly found in natural structures, contributing to buoyancy and balance for the nautilus (Nautilus pompilius) in ocean environments. |
