Ok. It looks very good. I'll wait for Cristina to make comments. **To the THEACHER from cristina: all my annotations are in purple. the red words are carola´s text that I marked.** __ Title: __ The golden ratio in humans.

__Introduction __

**("What is golden ratio" is a question tha must be answer in the introduction)** 

The study of this number called phi or "The golden ratio" in humans began in the XVI century. Leonardo Da Vinci was one of who studied about the human body and he saw that the perfection of human body corresponded with the golden ratio; Da Vinci made his conclusions about the perfection of the human body in a very famous drawing called Vitruvius, the body of a man inscribed in a circle in which details that their  **(I would omit it, it is confused. I would say :** the body of a man inscribed in a circle in which  proportions are golden. **)**  proportions should  be golden  **(I would omit "should" because the proportions are measures, numbers, it couldn´t be missed. Did Da Vinci measure this proportions in a real human?)** <span style="-moz-background-clip: border; -moz-background-inline-policy: continuous; -moz-background-origin: padding; background: #ebeff9 none repeat scroll 0% 0%; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; line-height: 115%;">.
