The symbols move in the sequences and alternately.

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 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.

The diagonals of the hexagon are drawn in a sequence - (1, 3), (1, 4), (1, 5), (2, 4), (2, 5), (2, 6), (3, 5), (3, 6), (4, 6).

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 '=' 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.

Two elements are added in each step, be it two lines, two arcs or one line and one arc.

The arrow moves one, two, three, four, .... spaces ACW sequentially. The arrowhead changes in the sequence: circle -> arc -> triangle -> circle -> ...

In each step, all the existing curves get inverted and one of the line segments gets converted to a curve.

The symbols move in sequences and alternately. In each step, the symbol that reaches the encircled position gets replaced by a new symbol.
