In biology, we were looking at different cells and the different structures. This is an image of epithelium tissue, and as can be seen, the gaps and spaces in between the different cells form irregular, random, and free flowing cavities. It’s fascinating because the image itself looks like a river that runs through mountains or fjords, flowing into a harbour-like structure, then emptying out into the ocean. It’s interesting to see some of the same geometric patterns appear both in both the macroscopic and microscopic worlds.
This is an awesome observation! It really does look like a river, and like you said it’s interesting to see geometric patterns reappear in so many different ways in nature.
