Question

Which shape comes next in the sequence?

• A. A
• B. B
• C. C
• D. D
• E. E

Answer 1

Answer: (E)

Concept: This is a
pattern recognition problem involving movement/alternation of filled (black) and unfilled (white) circles inside a fixed grid. Such questions typically follow:

• Shifting positions (left/right/up/down)
• Alternating colors (black $\leftrightarrow$ white)
• Cyclic or rotational symmetry

Step 1: Observe the sequence carefully.
Each figure consists of a fixed arrangement of circles where:

• Some circles are
  filled (black)
• Some are
  unfilled (white)

Step 2: Identify the pattern.
On comparing consecutive figures:

• The
  positions of black and white circles are shifting systematically
• The movement follows a
  cyclic transformation pattern
• Each step rearranges the pattern while maintaining overall structure

Step 3: Predict the next figure.
Continuing the same transformation:

• The next arrangement must follow the same positional shift
• Among the given options, only
  Option E correctly continues this pattern

Conclusion:
Thus, the correct next figure in the sequence is
Option (E).
