UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D001921	Brain	The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain). The developed brain consists of CEREBRUM; CEREBELLUM; and other structures in the BRAIN STEM.	Encephalon
D004327	Drinking Behavior	Behaviors associated with the ingesting of water and other liquids; includes rhythmic patterns of drinking (time intervals - onset and duration), frequency and satiety.	Behavior, Drinking,Behaviors, Drinking,Drinking Behaviors
D004524	Eels	Common name for an order (Anguilliformes) of voracious, elongate, snakelike teleost fishes.	Anguilliformes,Eel
D000802	Angiotensin Amide	The octapeptide amide of bovine angiotensin II used to increase blood pressure by vasoconstriction.	Angiotensinamide,1-Asparagine-5-valine Angiotensin II,5-Valine-Angiotensin II Amide,Hypertensin,1 Asparagine 5 valine Angiotensin II,5 Valine Angiotensin II Amide,Amide, 5-Valine-Angiotensin II,Amide, Angiotensin,Angiotensin II, 1-Asparagine-5-valine
D000804	Angiotensin II	An octapeptide that is a potent but labile vasoconstrictor. It is produced from angiotensin I after the removal of two amino acids at the C-terminal by ANGIOTENSIN CONVERTING ENZYME. The amino acid in position 5 varies in different species. To block VASOCONSTRICTION and HYPERTENSION effect of angiotensin II, patients are often treated with ACE INHIBITORS or with ANGIOTENSIN II TYPE 1 RECEPTOR BLOCKERS.

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
