An ontological analysis of the relationship construct in conceptual modeling. 

A causal relation type of node shows a cause-and-effect relationship. There may be more than one cause for one effect or one cause for more than one effect. It also shows the relationship between a cause and its consequences or its effect and consequences.  

Causal Relation Type of Node

Sequential Relationship Type of Node

This is a type of hierarchical relationship between concepts specifically where the superordinate concept (generic concept) is a generalization of the subordinate concept. For example, the concept 'wildcat' (subordinate) is related to the generic orverarching group 'cats' (superordinate). 

Generic Relation Type of Node

A relationship between a part (subordinate concept) of a whole (superordinate cconcept).
