Spider webs are made from spider silk proteins called spinnerets. Spider webs serve several purposes, including shelter, courtship, and trapping prey. To construct a web, a spider first connects two endpoints with silk threads to form a bridge. It then adds more threads, pulling them into a Y shape. The spider joins three points to form a frame, then releases radial threads from the center to strengthen the web. Finally, it spins spirally from the center to complete the web. Studies show that spider webs exhibit properties consistent with the Fibonacci sequence and golden ratio, which allows the web to be both strong and compact.
