This document contains a student's answers to an activity on patterns in nature. The student identified four patterns - spider webs in a spiral pattern, the bilateral symmetry of the human body, the fractal pattern of tree branches, and the tessellation pattern of pineapple eyes. For each pattern, the student explained how the objects form the pattern and classified the pattern as self-organized or invoked.

Activity 1.1 Patterns and Numbers in Nature and the World
Direction: Look for visible patterns inside/outside the house. Explain why or how the objects form a pattern. Identify the pattern as Self-organized or Invoked organized. Explain.
Pattern Explanation Types of Patterns
Spider Webs Because it is a curved Spiral Pattern pattern that starts in the center point then a series of circular shapes goes around it.
Human’s Body Because the left and the Bilateral Symmetry
right side of a person’s Pattern body can be divided into mirror image of each side along the midline called sagittal plane.
Trees Because a tree branches
and leaves is a never Fractals Pattern ending pattern, means it repeats itself as they grow.
Pineapple Fruit Because the shapes (or Tessellations
the eyes of pineapple) are formed from several geometric units (tiles) that all fit together with no gaps or overlaps to form an interesting and united pattern.
