Question

Which shape follows in the sequence?

Answer 1

Correct Answer: 1

Concept: This is a
figure series (visual reasoning) problem involving:

• Movement of a black square across corners
• Alternating presence of a dot
• Direction change of diagonal line

Step 1: Track the black square.

• The black square moves
  around the corners in cyclic order

Step 2: Track the diagonal.

• The diagonal alternates direction (\(\backslash\) and \(/\))

Step 3: Track the dot.

• The dot appears in alternate steps
• When present, it lies along the diagonal

Step 4: Predict next figure.
Following the pattern:

• The black square moves to the next corner
• The diagonal flips direction
• The dot appears again (as per alternation)

Step 5: Option analysis.

• (A) Matches all conditions \checkmark
• (B) Missing dot $\times$
• (C) Incorrect square position $\times$
• (D) Wrong diagonal orientation $\times$
• (E) Incorrect placement $\times$

Conclusion:
Thus, the correct answer is
Option (A).
