Reaction-diffusion is a mathematical model describing how two chemicals might react to each other as they diffuse through a medium together. It was proposed by Alan Turing in 1952 as a possible explanation for how the interesting patterns of stripes and spots that are seen on the skin/fur of animals like giraffes and leopards form.
The reaction-diffusion equations really only describes how the concentrations of the chemicals change over time, which means that all of the interesting patterns and behaviors that we see are emergent phenomena.
