Mouse, macaque, chicken, and turtle vasculature share scale-free geometry

CODA maps suggest vascular systems across species obey the same space-filling fractal geometry with dimension three

The vasculature system as mapped by CODA. Color coded by radius size and Strahler order. We found that the vasculature for mouse, rhesus macaque, chicken, and turtle have the same scale-free space-filling fractal geometry (D = 3). Here:
