- The heart is the center of the pattern (keeps the system running)
- Blood cells act as spheres that contain oxygen for the body
- The blood vessels are tubes that transport the cells
- The whole system acts as a holarchy, with the parts working to keep the person alive

- Same premise as circulatory system, with brain being the center
- Neurons act as triggers in the brain
- Axon in neuron is a tube that transports neurotransmitters
- Brain is a holon (if one part is missing, it is not the same as it is whole)
- Neurotransmitters are like arrows because they “direct” the body to do a certain action/have a certain feeling
The Muscular SystemThe Muscular System

- Muscle cells are clusters that are also clonons, which form bigger clusters, or holons
- They show flexibility
- Muscles are tubes made up of smaller tubes that help to transport energy to move
The Skeletal SystemThe Skeletal System

- Bones are tubes that give the body support and rigidity
- The rib cage acts as a sphere around the organs to protect against physical damage
- The skull also acts as a sphere
- Each of the specific bones acts as a holons to an even larger holon which is the skeletal system
- The whole system is a binary (identical on both sides)
The Human BodyThe Human Body
With all the combined systems of the body, a sphere is created
Each system of the body is another building block in creating the sphere that seems to all fit together like a puzzle
The whole body also is a representation of time
It also relies on cycles to keep is alive
ConclusionConclusion
Without patterns, humans (and any life) could not exist
Patterns=structure, no structure=no life
Patterns in humans also help to create equality (we are all the same inside)
