Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Common leaf arrangement patterns are distichous (regular 180 degrees, bamboo), Fibonacci spiral (regular 137.5 degrees, the succulent Graptopetalum paraguayense), decussate (regular 90 degrees, the herb basil), and tricussate (regular 60 degrees, Nerium oleander sometimes known as dogbane).
Detailed explanation-2: -Natural patterns include symmetries, trees, spirals, meanders, waves, foams, tessellations, cracks and stripes.
Detailed explanation-3: -Types of patterns found everywhere in nature include symmetry, branching, spirals, cracks, spots, stripes, chaos, flows, meanders, waves, dunes, bubbles, foam, arrays, crystals, and tilings. Many of these can be described using fractal geometry.
