Response and Reflection
From all the information I learned, I found the Golden Ratio in the Human Body is pretty amazing.
On how the Golden number 1.618 can determine who is beautiful. However, I don't believe that the Golden number can determine who is most beautiful because it is not that accurate. The are many people out there in the world that are pretty. It is just based on what the people definition of beautiful is. To me, my definition of beautiful is based on how they act and their personality not only how they look. Also based on how pure their soul are.
