The elements move in the sequences and alternately. Also, in each step, the element at the encircled position gets replaced by a new element.

The bent pin gets laterally inverted and vertically inverted alternately and moves to the adjacent side (of the square boundary) in a CW direction in each step,. The curved arrow rotates 90 ^oACW and moves to the adjacent side CW in each step. As for the third element - in one step the outer 'L' shaped symbol gets laterally inverted and in the next step the element gets vertically inverted. Or, similar figure reappears in every fourth step. So, after fig. (E), the fig. (B) should reappear.

The line segment rotates through 90 ^o and moves to the adjacent portion of the rhombus in an ACW direction in first, third, fifth, ... steps. The other symbol moves to the adjacent portion of the rhombus in an ACW direction and also gets replaced by a new symbol in second, fourth, sixth,... steps.

One dot and one line segment are added to the figure in each step, once to the LHS and next to the RHS part of the figure.

The small line segment attached to the main figure moves 2,1, 3,1, 4,... spaces CW sequentially.

The two elements together move two spaces (each space is equal to half-a-side of the square boundary) and three space ACW alternately. Also, in one step, the two elements interchange positions and together rotate 90 ^oCW and in the next step, the two elements interchange positions and together rotate through 180 ^o.

In each step, all the elements move to the adjacent corner (of the square boundary) in an ACW direction. Also, the elements that reach the lower-right and upper-left positions get vertically inverted alternately.

The symbols move in the sequences and alternately.

In each step, the symbols move in the order and the symbol that reaches the upper-left position gets replaced by a new one.

The '=' sign moves to the adjacent position in a CW direction in each step. The symbol at the ACW-end position in fig. (A), moves to the adjacent position in an ACW direction in each step and gets replaced by a new symbol in first, third, fifth, ... steps. The symbol at the CW-end position in fig. (A), moves to the adjacent position in an ACW direction in each step and gets replaced by a new symbol in second, fourth, sixth, ... steps.
