Label	Id	Description
cartilage of respiratory system	UBERON_0003406	[A cartilage element that is part of a respiratory system [Automatically generated definition].]
pharyngeal arch cartilage	UBERON_0011004	[A cartilage element that is part of a splanchnocranium.]
laryngeal pre-cartilage condensation	UBERON_0010213
laryngeal apparatus	UBERON_0010212	[Apparatus located between the lungs and the buccal cavity. This apparatus is composed of a pair of arytenoid cartilages that are supported by the cricoid ring.]
nasal vestibule	UBERON_0000402	[The nasal vestibule is the most anterior part of the nasal cavity. It's enclosed by the cartilages of nose and lined by the same epithelium of the skin. The other part of the nasal cavity, which is lined by the respiratory epithelium, is called nasal cavity proper. [WP,unvetted].]
anatomical cavity	UBERON_0002553	[Anatomical space which contains portions of one or more body substances and is bounded by the internal surface of one maximally connected anatomical structure. Examples: cranial cavity, pharyngeal recess space, nasal cavity, tooth socket, cavity of serous sac, lumen of stomach, lumen of artery, fornix of vagina.]
soft palate	UBERON_0001733	[The muscular, non-bony arch-shaped posterior portion of the palate extending from the posterior edge of the hard palate.]
anatomical cluster	UBERON_0000477	[Anatomical group that has its parts adjacent to one another.]
serous gland	UBERON_0000409	[A gland in which the principal secretory cells are serous secreting cells.]
exocrine gland	UBERON_0002365	[A gland that secretes products (excluding hormones and other chemical messengers) into ducts (duct glands) which lead directly into the external environment[WP]. Typical exocrine glands include sweat glands, salivary glands, mammary glands, stomach, liver, pancreas]
serous acinus	UBERON_0013232	[The secretory unit of a serous gland. The acinar portion is composed of serous secreting cells.]
secretion of serous gland	UBERON_0007794	[Any fluid produced by a serous gland.]
vertebral ganglion	UBERON_0000408	[Any of a group of sympathetic ganglia which form two chains extending from the base of the skull to the coccyx along the sides of the spinal column.]
paravertebral ganglion	UBERON_0001807	[Trunk ganglion which is part of a bilaterally paired set of sympathetic ganglia located anterior and lateral to the spinal cord.]
cervical ganglion	UBERON_0001991	[The cervical ganglia are paravertebral ganglia of the sympathetic nervous system. They consist of three paravertebral ganglia: superior cervical ganglion middle cervical ganglion inferior cervical ganglion. The inferior ganglion may be fused with the first thoracic ganglion to form a single structure, the stellate ganglion. Nerves emerging from cervical sympathetic ganglia contribute to the cardiac plexus, among other things. [WP,unvetted].]
palatine uvula	UBERON_0001734	[Conic projection from the posterior edge of the middle of the soft palate, composed of connective tissue containing a number of racemose glands, and some muscular fibers.]
sympathetic trunk	UBERON_0000407	[One of a a paired bundle of nerve fibers plus ganglia that run from the base of the skull to the coccyx.]
organ	UBERON_0000062	[Anatomical structure that performs a specific function or group of functions [WP].]
sympathetic nervous system	UBERON_0000013	[The sympathetic nervous system is one of the two divisions of the vertebrate autonomic nervous system (the other being the parasympathetic nervous system). The sympathetic preganglionic neurons have their cell bodies in the thoracic and lumbar regions of the spinal cord and connect to the paravertebral chain of sympathetic ganglia. Innervate heart and blood vessels, sweat glands, viscera and the adrenal medulla. Most sympathetic neurons, but not all, use noradrenaline as a post-ganglionic neurotransmitter [GO].]
tonsillar ring	UBERON_0001735	[the circular lymphoid tissue formed by the lingual, pharyngeal, and facial tonsils]
