BinaryPredicate
A Predicate relating two items - its valence is two.
Relationships      
Parents BinaryRelation BinaryRelations are relations that are true only of pairs of things. BinaryRelations are represented as slots in frame systems.
  可繼承的關係 The class of Relations whose properties can be inherited downward in the class hierarchy via the subrelation Predicate.
  Predicate A Predicate is a sentence-forming Relation. Each tuple in the Relation is a finite, ordered sequence of objects. The fact that a particular tuple is an element of a Predicate is denoted by '(*predicate* arg_1 arg_2 .. arg_n)', where the arg_i are the objects so related. In the case of BinaryPredicates, the fact can be read as `arg_1 is *predicate* arg_2' or `a *predicate* of arg_1 is arg_2'.

 CaseRoleThe Class of Predicates relating the spatially distinguished parts of a Process. CaseRoles include, for example, the agent, patient or destination of an action, the flammable substance in a burning process, or the water that falls in rain.
 cellShapeBacteria (Bacterium) and Archaea (ArchaelCell) are classified by direct examination with the light microscope according to their morphology and arrangement. The basic morphologies are Spheres (coccus) and round-ended or rod-shaped Cylinders (bacillus). But there may be others such as helically twisted cylinders (spirochetes), cylinders curved in one plane (selenomonads) and unusual morphologies (such as the square, flat box-shaped cells of the archaean genus Haloquadratum). Arrangements include pairs, tetrads, clusters, chains and palisades. [from Wikipedia]
 SheddingPartThe Class of BinaryPredicates relating an Organism and the Removing of one of its Part as part of the normal process of life. Unlike Birth, the paitent dies upon its removal from the its origin.
