biological_process
|
A biological process is the execution of a genetically-encoded biological module or program. It consists of all the steps required to achieve the specific biological objective of the module. A biological process is accomplished by a particular set of molecular functions carried out by specific gene products (or macromolecular complexes), often in a highly regulated manner and in a particular temporal sequence. |

|
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: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:0019953
|
sexual reproduction
|
A type of reproduction that combines the genetic material of two gametes (such as a sperm or egg cell or fungal spores). The gametes have an haploid genome (with a single set of chromosomes, the product of a meiotic division) and combines with one another to produce a zygote (diploid). |
|
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:0000747
|
conjugation with cellular fusion
|
A conjugation process that results in the union of cellular and genetic information from compatible mating types. An example of this process is found in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. |
|
GO:2000241
|
regulation of reproductive process
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of reproductive process. |
|
GO:2000243
|
positive regulation of reproductive process
|
Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of reproductive process. |
|
GO:0031139
|
positive regulation of conjugation with cellular fusion
|
Any process that increases the rate or frequency of conjugation with cellular fusion. |
|
GO:0031137
|
regulation of conjugation with cellular fusion
|
Any process that modulates the rate or frequency of conjugation with cellular fusion. |
