single-organism localization
|
A localization which involves only one organism. |
GO:0008150

reproduction
|
The production of new individuals that contain some portion of genetic material inherited from one or more parent organisms. |
GO:0051234
|
establishment of localization
|
The directed movement of a cell, substance or cellular entity, such as a protein complex or organelle, to a specific location. |
GO:0044765
|
single-organism transport
|
The directed movement of substances (such as macromolecules, small molecules, ions) into, out of or within a cell, or between cells, or within a multicellular organism by means of some agent such as a transporter or pore, involving a single organism. |
GO:0065007
|
biological regulation
|
Any process that modulates a measurable attribute of any biological process, quality or function. |
GO:0050789
|
regulation of biological process
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of a biological process. Biological processes are regulated by many means; examples include the control of gene expression, protein modification or interaction with a protein or substrate molecule. |
GO:0023052
|
signaling
|
The entirety of a process in which information is transmitted within a biological system. This process begins with an active signal and ends when a cellular response has been triggered. |
GO:0044700
|
single organism signaling
|
A signaling process occurring within a single organism. |
GO:0048518
|
positive regulation of biological process
|
Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of a biological process. Biological processes are regulated by many means; examples include the control of gene expression, protein modification or interaction with a protein or substrate molecule. |
GO:0022414
|
reproductive process
|
A biological process that directly contributes to the process of producing new individuals by one or two organisms. The new individuals inherit some proportion of their genetic material from the parent or parents. |
GO:0044707
|
single-multicellular organism process
|
A biological process occurring within a single, multicellular organism. |
GO:0032501
|
multicellular organismal process
|
Any biological process, occurring at the level of a multicellular organism, pertinent to its function. |
GO:0044767
|
single-organism developmental process
|
A biological process whose specific outcome is the progression of an integrated living unit: an anatomical structure (which may be a subcellular structure, cell, tissue, or organ), or organism over time from an initial condition to a later condition, involving only one organism. |
GO:0048856
|
anatomical structure development
|
The biological process whose specific outcome is the progression of an anatomical structure from an initial condition to its mature state. This process begins with the formation of the structure and ends with the mature structure, whatever form that may be including its natural destruction. An anatomical structure is any biological entity that occupies space and is distinguished from its surroundings. Anatomical structures can be macroscopic such as a carpel, or microscopic such as an acrosome. |
GO:0065008
|
regulation of biological quality
|
Any process that modulates a qualitative or quantitative trait of a biological quality. A biological quality is a measurable attribute of an organism or part of an organism, such as size, mass, shape, color, etc. |
GO:0050793
|
regulation of developmental process
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of development, the biological process whose specific outcome is the progression of a multicellular organism over time from an initial condition (e.g. a zygote, or a young adult) to a later condition (e.g. a multicellular animal or an aged adult). |
GO:0048731
|
system development
|
The process whose specific outcome is the progression of an organismal system over time, from its formation to the mature structure. A system is a regularly interacting or interdependent group of organs or tissues that work together to carry out a given biological process. |
