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. |

GO:0065007
|
biological regulation
|
Any process that modulates a measurable attribute of any biological process, quality or function. |
|
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:0032501
|
multicellular organismal process
|
Any biological process, occurring at the level of a multicellular organism, pertinent to its function. |
|
GO:0003008
|
system process
|
A multicellular organismal process carried out by any of the organs or tissues in an organ system. An organ system is a regularly interacting or interdependent group of organs or tissues that work together to carry out a biological objective. |
|
GO:0003073
|
regulation of systemic arterial blood pressure
|
The process that modulates the force with which blood travels through the systemic arterial circulatory system. The process is controlled by a balance of processes that increase pressure and decrease pressure. |
|
GO:0003013
|
circulatory system process
|
An organ system process carried out by any of the organs or tissues of the circulatory system. The circulatory system is an organ system that moves extracellular fluids to and from tissue within a multicellular organism. |
|
GO:0008217
|
regulation of blood pressure
|
Any process that modulates the force with which blood travels through the circulatory system. The process is controlled by a balance of processes that increase pressure and decrease pressure. |
|
GO:0008015
|
blood circulation
|
The flow of blood through the body of an animal, enabling the transport of nutrients to the tissues and the removal of waste products. |
|
GO:0003018
|
vascular process in circulatory system
|
A circulatory process that occurs at the level of the vasculature. |
|
GO:0045777
|
positive regulation of blood pressure
|
Any process in which the force of blood traveling through the circulatory system is increased. |
|
GO:0097746
|
blood vessel diameter maintenance
|
Any process that modulates the diameter of blood vessels. |
|
GO:0035296
|
regulation of tube diameter
|
Any process that modulates the diameter of a tube. |
|
GO:0035150
|
regulation of tube size
|
Ensuring that a tube is of the correct length and diameter. Tube size must be maintained not only during tube formation, but also throughout development and in some physiological processes. |
|
GO:0090066
|
regulation of anatomical structure size
|
Any process that modulates the size of an anatomical structure. |
|
GO:0042310
|
vasoconstriction
|
A decrease in the diameter of blood vessels, especially arteries, due to constriction of smooth muscle cells that line the vessels, and usually causing an increase in blood pressure. |
|
GO:0003044
|
regulation of systemic arterial blood pressure mediated by a chemical signal
|
The regulation of blood pressure mediated by biochemical signaling: hormonal, autocrine or paracrine. |
|
GO:0001993
|
regulation of systemic arterial blood pressure by norepinephrine-epinephrine
|
The process in which the secretion of norepinephrine or epinephrine into the bloodstream modulates the force with which blood passes through the circulatory system. |
|
GO:0001994
|
norepinephrine-epinephrine vasoconstriction involved in regulation of systemic arterial blood pressure
|
A process that results in a decrease in the diameter of an artery during the norepinephrine-epinephrine response to decreased blood pressure. |
|
GO:0003321
|
positive regulation of blood pressure by epinephrine-norepinephrine
|
Any process in which the force of blood traveling through the circulatory system is increased by the chemicals epinephrine and norepinephrine. |
