Identifier	Name	Description
GO:0051179	localization	Any process in which a cell, a substance, or a cellular entity, such as a protein complex or organelle, is transported, tethered to or otherwise maintained in a specific location. In the case of substances, localization may also be achieved via selective degradation.
GO:0008150	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:0051234	establishment of localization	Any process that localizes a substance or cellular component. This may occur via movement, tethering or selective degradation.
GO:0006810	transport	The directed movement of substances (such as macromolecules, small molecules, ions) or cellular components (such as complexes and organelles) 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 a transporter complex, a pore or a motor protein.
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: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: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:0022600	digestive system process	A physical, chemical, or biochemical process carried out by living organisms to break down ingested nutrients into components that may be easily absorbed and directed into metabolism.
GO:0046903	secretion	The controlled release of a substance by a cell or a tissue.
GO:0051240	positive regulation of multicellular organismal process	Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of an organismal process, any of the processes pertinent to the function of an organism above the cellular level; includes the integrated processes of tissues and organs.
GO:0051239	regulation of multicellular organismal process	Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of a multicellular organismal process, the processes pertinent to the function of a multicellular organism above the cellular level; includes the integrated processes of tissues and organs.
GO:0032879	regulation of localization	Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of any process in which a cell, a substance, or a cellular entity is transported to, or maintained in, a specific location.
GO:0051049	regulation of transport	Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the directed movement of substances (such as macromolecules, small molecules, ions) into, out of or within a cell, or between cells, by means of some agent such as a transporter or pore.
GO:0051046	regulation of secretion	Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the controlled release of a substance from a cell or a tissue.
GO:0051050	positive regulation of transport	Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the directed movement of substances (such as macromolecules, small molecules, ions) into, out of or within a cell, or between cells, by means of some agent such as a transporter or pore.
GO:0051047	positive regulation of secretion	Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the controlled release of a substance from a cell or a tissue.
GO:0044057	regulation of system process	Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of a system process, a multicellular organismal process carried out by any of the organs or tissues in an organ system.
GO:0007588	excretion	The elimination by an organism of the waste products that arise as a result of metabolic activity. These products include water, carbon dioxide (CO2), and nitrogenous compounds.
GO:0044058	regulation of digestive system process	Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of a digestive system process, a physical, chemical, or biochemical process carried out by living organisms to break down ingested nutrients into components that may be easily absorbed and directed into metabolism.
GO:0030421	defecation	The expulsion of feces from the rectum.
GO:0044062	regulation of excretion	Any process that modulates the frequency, rate, or extent of excretion, the elimination by an organism of the waste products that arise as a result of metabolic activity.
GO:0060456	positive regulation of digestive system process	Any process that increases the frequency, rate or extent of a digestive system process, a physical, chemical, or biochemical process carried out by living organisms to break down ingested nutrients into components that may be easily absorbed and directed into metabolism.
GO:2000292	regulation of defecation	Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of defecation.
GO:2000294	positive regulation of defecation	Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of defecation.
