Well here are some of the ones I remember
* leaves on plants
*snake skin
*a pineapple
*scales on a fish
Just look around you...On your house, there are brick walls. These are examples of non-regular tessellations...Look at pictures of honeycombs that bees live in. Those are examples of regular tessellations...Go on google or whatever you use and look up the artwork of M.C. Escher.

Actually, tessellations that use more than one type of regular polygon are called semi-regular or Archimedean tessellations, not regular tessellations. Regular tessellations consist of only one type of regular polygon repeating in a pattern. Examples of regular tessellations include those formed by equilateral triangles, squares, or hexagons. Semi-regular tessellations combine two or more different types of regular polygons while still covering a plane without gaps or overlaps.
pineapple, honey comb, turtle, fish scales peacock feathers. hope that helps!
there are 8 possible semi-regular tessellations :) hop i can helpp .

Tessellations
Tessellations can be found in art, architecture, nature, and mathematics. You can see tessellations in tiles, quilts, pavement designs, honeycomb patterns, and even in the arrangement of fish scales. Mathematically, regular polygons like squares, triangles, and hexagons can tessellate a plane.

Tessellations can be found in nature in various forms such as honeycomb patterns in beehives, fish scales, plant leaf arrangements, and the geometric patterns on the skin of some animals like snakes and turtles. These natural tessellations help organisms optimize space, efficiency, and protection in their environments.

All sorts of polygons can create tessellations. See attached link for some examples: http://http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tessellation

Its trigonometry. Tessellations are shapes.
Tessellations have been used in art and architecture since ancient times, with examples found in cultures such as Islamic art and Roman mosaics. However, the term "tessellation" was not used until the 17th century, popularized by mathematicians like Kepler and Escher.
