Answer 1

Divine Proportion, often referred to as the Golden Ratio, can be observed in various aspects of nature, art, and architecture. Based on your options, the following statements are true:

1. It can be observed when looking at a real flower. - Many flowers exhibit patterns that conform to the Golden Ratio, such as the arrangement of petals or the proportions of flower parts.

2. It can be observed when looking at a sea shell. - The spiral shape of certain sea shells, like the nautilus, follows the Golden Spiral, which is related to the Golden Ratio.

The other statements about churches and water do not distinctly point to the Divine Proportion in a specific way as the two above. While some churches may incorporate elements of the Golden Ratio in their design, it's not universally true for all churches or all aspects of water.

Thus, the correct options to select are:

• It can be observed when looking at a real flower.
• It can be observed when looking at a sea shell.
