This is a regular sequence which either exists in nature or is imposed through classification. Crystal structures can be identified by diffraction techniques because of the regular arrangement of their atoms. The periodic table of the elements displays an orderly arrangement of elements. An organism is a living thing or something that was once alive. Fossils found in sedimentary rock provide evidence of organisms which became extinct a long time ago.
Perception is the interpretation of sensory input by the brain.
