| subthalamic nucleus | A biconvex mass of gray matter on the medial side of the junction of the internal capsule and the crus cerebri; its chief connections are with the globus pallidus [Brenda]. | — |
| muscle | A body tissue consisting of long cells that contract when stimulated and produce motion [Brenda]. | — |
| pons | A broad mass of chiefly transverse nerve fibers conspicuous on the ventral surface of the brain of man and lower mammals at the anterior end of the medulla oblongata [Brenda]. | — |
| olfactory bulb | A bulbous anterior projection of the olfactory lobe that is the place of termination of the olfactory nerves and is especially well developed in lower vertebrates (as fishes) [Brenda]. | — |
| vagina | A canal in a female mammal that leads from the uterus to the external orifice of the genital canal [Brenda]. | — |
| capillary | A capillary tube; especially: any of the smallest blood vessels connecting arterioles with venules and forming networks throughout the body [Brenda]. | — |
| lymph | A clear, watery, sometimes faintly yellowish fluid derived from body tissues that contains white blood cells and circulates throughout the lymphatic system, returning to the venous bloodstream through the thoracic duct. Lymph acts to remove bacteria and certain proteins from the tissues, transport fat from the small intestine, and supply mature lymphocytes to the blood [Brenda]. | — |
| visceral column | A column of gray matter in the hindbrain and spinal cord of the embryo, represented in the adult by the dorsal nucleus of the vagus, the superior and inferior salivatory and Edinger-Westphal nuclei and the visceral motor neurones of the spinal cord [Wikipedia: http://www.mondofacto.com/facts/dictionary?general+visceral+efferent+column]. | general viseral efferent column |
| umbilical cord | A cord arising from the navel that connects the fetus with the placenta [Brenda]. | — |
| hippocampus | A curved elongated ridge that extends over the floor of the descending horn of each lateral ventricle of the brain and consists of gray matter covered on the ventricular surface with white matter;nThe hippocampus is a part of the temporal lobe, which has a well established role in learning, memory and emotion [Brenda]. | — |
| anatomical site | A defined structural or conceptional component of an organism [Daniel Wuttke]. | — |
| stomach | A dilatation of the alimentary canal of a vertebrate communicating anteriorly with the esophagus and posteriorly with the duodenum [Brenda]. | — |
| cochlea | A division of the bony labyrinth of the inner ear of higher vertebrates that is usually coiled like a snail shell and is the seat of the hearing organ [Brenda]. | — |
| fibroblasts | A fibroblast is a type of cell that synthesizes the extracellular matrix and collagen, the structural framework (stroma) for animal tissues, and plays a critical role in wound healing. Fibroblasts are the most common cells of connective tissue in animals [Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibroblast]. | — |
| meniscus | A fibrous cartilage within a joint especially of the knee [Brenda]. | — |
| tongue | A fleshy movable process of the floor of the mouths of most vertebrates that bears sensory end organs and small glands and functions especially in taking and swallowing food and in humans as a speech organ [Brenda]. | — |
| milk | A fluid secreted by the mammary glands of females for the nourishment of their young; especially: cow's milk used as a food by humans [Brenda]. | — |
| spinal ganglion | A ganglion on the dorsal root of each spinal nerve that is one of a series of ganglia lodging cell bodies of sensory neurons [Brenda]. | — |
| thymus | A glandular structure of largely lymphoid tissue that functions especially in the development of the body's immune system, is present in the young of most vertebrates typically in the upper anterior chest or at the base of the neck, and tends to atrophy in the adult [Brenda]. | — |
| neutrophil | A granulocyte that is the chief phagocytic white blood cell of the blood [Brenda]. | — |
| neuron | A grayish or reddish granular cell with specialized processes that is the fundamental functional unit of nervous tissue [Brenda]. | — |
| ganglion | A group of nerve cell bodies located outside the central nervous system. The term is occasionally applied to certain nuclear groups within the brain or spinal cord, such as the basal ganglia [Brenda]. | — |
| gut | A gut is a tube by which bilaterian animals transfer food to the digestion organs [Ruppert, E.E., Fox, R.S., and Barnes, R.D. (2004). "Introduction to Eumetazoa". Invertebrate Zoology (7 ed.). Brooks / Cole. pp. 99â103. ISBN 0-03-025982-7] | alimentary canal; alimentary tract |
| cardiac valve | A heart valve normally allows blood flow in only one direction through the heart. The four valves commonly represented in a mammalian heart determine the pathway of blood flow through the heart. A heart valve opens or closes incumbent upon differential blood pressure on each side [Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_valve]. | — |
| lens | A highly transparent biconvex lens-shaped or nearly spherical body in the eye that focuses light rays (as upon the retina) [Brenda]. | — |
