Definition	Name	Synonym	Primary Identifier
Longitudinal bands of muscle cells surrounding animal body, with one band running in each quadrant of the body, regulated contraction and relaxation of these muscles cause locomotion.	body wall musculature	body muscle	WBbt:0005813
Complement of nervous tissue (neurones, nerves, receptors and support cells) serving to detect, relay and coordinate information about an animal`s internal and external environments and to initiate and integrate its effector responses and activities.	nervous system		WBbt:0005735
muscle associated with hermaphrodite vulva.	vulval muscle		WBbt:0005821
neuron with its cell body situated in the head, excluding the pharynx.	head neuron		WBbt:0006751
a single, H-shaped cell which lies just above the anus and connects the roof of the anal canal to the dorsal bodywall; its contractions act to increase the size of the anal opening by lifting the roof of the rectum and hence facilitate expulsion of intestinal contents.	anal depressor muscle	dilator muscle	WBbt:0004292
Neuron class of one interneuron, projects along ventral cord to ring.	PVT	lineage name: ABplpappppa	WBbt:0004070
neuron with its cell body situated in the tail, posterior to rectum.	tail neuron		WBbt:0006759
posterior region, from rectum to the end	tail		WBbt:0005741
	reproductive system		WBbt:0005747
