Abstract
Description of the morphology of organisms is mostly done in terms of features assuming certain states. Biological patterns are subjected to certain constraints imposed on them by the fact that they all are developed from a single cell. Using a model in which some of the constraints of biological development are incorporated we investigate the relation between different modes of description of such patterns.
