A shape quality inhering in a bearer by virtue of the bearer’s being marked by narrow lines or grooves, usually parallel.

structure [PATO_0000141]

A morphology quality inhering in a bearer by virtue of the bearer’s relative position, shape, arrangements and connectivity of an organism’s various parts; the pattern underlying its form.

structure, cavities [PATO_0002014]

A structural quality that inheres in a bearer by virtue of the bearer’s containing hollow areas.

structured [PATO_0001411]

A structural quality inhering in a bearer by virtue of the bearer’s having distinct structure.

subcylindrical [PATO_0002226]

A cylindrical shape quality inhering in a bearer by virtue of the bearer’s being imperfectly cylindrical or approximately cylindrical.

superelliptic [PATO_0002318]

A shape constituting a transition between a rectangle and a circle; a closed curve, of which the circle and ellipse are special cases, whose parametric equation is x = a.cos2/rt, y = b.cos2/rt

temperature [PATO_0000146]

A physical quality of the thermal energy of a system.

temporal distribution quality [PATO_0002323]

A temporal distribution pattern of process occurrences within a regulation/reference process.

texture [PATO_0000150]

A morphologic quality inhering in a bearer by virtue of the bearer’s relative size, organization and distribution of its surface elements or the representation or invention of the appearance of its surface; visual and tactile surface characteristics.

transparent [PATO_0000964]

A optical quality inhering in a bearer by virtue of the bearer’s lacking opacity.

transversely striated [PATO_0002478]

A shape quality inhering in a bearer by virtue of the bearer’s being marked by narrow lines or grooves, usually parallel, that are oriented transversely relative to the long axis of the bearer.

trophic quality [PATO_0000056]

An organismal quality inhering in a bearer by virtue of the bearer’s disposition to synthesize a particular organic compound required for its growth.

tubular [PATO_0002299]

A cylindrical shape that is hollow.

unilateral [PATO_0000634]

A spatial pattern inhering in a bearer by virtue of the bearer’s involvement of only one part or side.

unipotent [PATO_0001400]

A cellular potency that is the capacity to produce only one differentiated cell type. Unipotent cells have the quality of self-renewal which distinguishes them from non-stem cells.

viability [PATO_0000169]

An organismal quality inhering in a bearer or a population by virtue of the bearer’s disposition to survive and develop normally or the number of surviving individuals in a given population.

viable [PATO_0000719]

A viability quality inhering in a bearer or a population by virtue of the bearer’s ability to survive or the long term survival ability of a given population.

viscosity [PATO_0000992]

A physical quality of a fluid inhering in a bearer by virtue of the bearer’s disposition to internal resistance to flow.

viscous [PATO_0000998]

A viscosity quality inhering in a bearer by virtue of the bearer’s having viscosity.
