Answer:

What rhyme patterns that occurs at the end of lines in poetry is called a rhyme scheme.

Step-by-step explanation:

A poem tends to have musical flow because of the rhythm it carries. Rhyme is created when each line of the poem has a rhyming word or syllable at the end. This rhyme pattern at the end of each line in a poem is called 'rhyme scheme'.

We usually assign each line of the poem an alphabet and then assign same alphabet to the next line which has the rhyming word, i.e. lines with the same assigned letter imply that they are rhyming. Rhyme scheme of a poem can be AABBCC or ABBC and so on.

Poem:

There is a cat, A

On the mat, A

I see going, B

slowly glowing.B

Rhyme Scheme is AABB.
