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. |

developmental process
|

|
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: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. |
|
GO:0048468
|
cell development
|
The cellular developmental process in which a specific cell progresses from an immature to a mature state. Cell development start once cell commitment has taken place. |
|
GO:0048869
|
cellular developmental process
|
A biological process whose specific outcome is the progression of a cell over time from an initial condition to a later condition. |
|
GO:0030154
|
cell differentiation
|
The cellular developmental process in which a relatively unspecialized cell, e.g. embryonic or regenerative cell, acquires specialized structural and/or functional features that characterize a specific cell. Differentiation includes the processes involved in commitment of a cell to a specific fate and its subsequent development to the mature state. |
|
GO:0048699
|

|
GO:0007399
|
nervous system development
|
The process whose specific outcome is the progression of nervous tissue over time, from its formation to its mature state. |
|
GO:0120036
|
plasma membrane bounded cell projection organization
|
A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of a plasma membrane bounded prolongation or process extending from a cell, e.g. a cilium or axon. |
|
GO:0022008
|
neurogenesis
|
Generation of cells within the nervous system. |
|
GO:0030030
|
cell projection organization
|
A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of a prolongation or process extending from a cell, e.g. a flagellum or axon. |
|
GO:0048667
|
cell morphogenesis involved in neuron differentiation
|
The process in which the structures of a neuron are generated and organized. This process occurs while the initially relatively unspecialized cell is acquiring the specialized features of a neuron. |
|
GO:0048666
|
neuron development
|
The process whose specific outcome is the progression of a neuron over time, from initial commitment of the cell to a specific fate, to the fully functional differentiated cell. |
|
GO:0031175
|
neuron projection development
|
The process whose specific outcome is the progression of a neuron projection over time, from its formation to the mature structure. A neuron projection is any process extending from a neural cell, such as axons or dendrites (collectively called neurites). |
|
