Instances | AllergicReaction | A reaction by someone who is allergic to some substance coming into contact with it. |
| BiologicalProcess | A Process embodied in an Organism. |
| Entity | The universal class of individuals. This is the root node of the ontology. |
| InternalChange | Processes which involve altering an internal property of an Object, e.g. the shape of the Object, its coloring, its structure, etc. Processes that are not instances of this class include changes that only affect the relationship to other objects, e.g. changes in spatial or temporal location. |
| PathologicProcess | A disordered process, activity, or state of the Organism as a whole, of a body system or systems, or of multiple Organs or Tissues. Included here are normal responses to a negative stimulus as well as patholologic conditions or states that are less specific than a disease. Pathologic functions frequently have systemic effects. |
| Physical | An entity that has a location in space-time. Note that locations are themselves understood to have a location in space-time. |
| Process | The class of things that happen and have temporal parts or stages. Examples include extended events like a football match or a race, actions like Pursuing and Reading, and biological processes. The formal definition is: anything that occurs in time but is not an Object. Note that a Process may have participants 'inside' it which are Objects, such as the players in a football match. In a 4D ontology, a Process is something whose spatiotemporal extent is thought of as dividing into temporal stages roughly perpendicular to the time-axis. |
