Occipital Cortex Ribonucleic Acid Composition Measurement [CMO:0003319] —
Occipital Lobe Ribonucleic Acid Composition Measurement [CMO:0003309] —
Offspring Measurement [CMO:0001373] — Any measurement of the direct progeny of a parent or parents.
Offspring Morphological Measurement [CMO:0002081] — Any measurement of the physical form or structure of the direct progeny of a parent or parents.
Offspring Mortality Measurement [CMO:0002381] — Any quantitative measurement of death, mortality or fatality occuring in the direct progeny of a parent or parents. Death is defined as the cessation of all vital functions of the body. Death of the offspring during embryonic/fetal development may result in resorption, mummification or discharge to the exterior.
Olfactory Apparatus Ribonucleic Acid Composition Measurement [CMO:0003306] —
Omentum Ribonucleic Acid Composition Measurement [CMO:0003378] —
One Epididymidis Wet Weight [CMO:0001607] — The heaviness, i.e. the degree to which an object is drawn toward the earth by gravity, of a single epididymidis, measured after removal from the body but without desiccation. The epididymis is an elongated cordlike structure along the posterior border of the testis; its coiled duct provides for storage, transit, and maturation of spermatozoa and is continuous with the ductus deferens.
One Seminal Vesicle Wet Weight [CMO:0001604] — The heaviness, i.e. the degree to which an object is drawn toward the earth by gravity, of a single seminal vesicle, that is, one of a pair of pouchlike glands situated on each side of the male urinary bladder that secrete seminal fluid and nourish and promote the movement of spermatozoa through the urethra, measured after removal from the body but without dessication.
Oocyte Count [CMO:0000326] — Number of oocytes, immature female reproductive cells in a specified sample size.
Oocyte Ribonucleic Acid Level [CMO:0003992] — This is any measurement of the absolute or relative amount(s) of one or more of the ribonucleic acids (RNAs) found in a female germ cell(s) that has entered meiosis.
Optokinetic Reflex [CMO:0003729] — This eye movement consists of two components that serve to stabilize images on the retina: a slow, pursuit phase and a fast reflex or refixation phase. Measurement of the cumulative time spent visually tracking a moving object determines the extent of the reflex. The reflex is seen when an individual follows a moving object with their eyes, which then moves out of the field of vision at which point their eye moves back to the position it was in when it first saw the object.
Oral Cavity Ribonucleic Acid Composition Measurement [CMO:0003349] —
Organ Effluent Measurement [CMO:0000674] — Measurement of a fluid flowing out of an organ, especially one which has been removed from the body for study.
Organ Infarction Area [CMO:0000698] —
Organ Infarction Size Measurement [CMO:0000683] — Measurement of the area, volume or weight of necrotic tissue resulting from a reduction or obstruction of the oxygen supplied to that tissue.
Organ Infarction Volume [CMO:0001012] —
Organ Infarction Weight [CMO:0000697] —
Organ Lesion Measurement [CMO:0000677] — Measurement of a lesion in an organ. A lesion is a localized pathological change in structure of an organ or tissue due to injury or disease; especially one that is circumscribed and well defined.
Organ Measurement [CMO:0000669] — Any measurement of a structural part of a system of the body that is composed of tissues and cells that enable it to perform a particular function.
Organ Morphological Measurement [CMO:0000068] — A measurement of the physical form and structure of an organ.
Organ Non-tumorous Lesion Incidence/prevalence Measurement [CMO:0000929] — A measurement in which the number of individuals in a study population that display one or more non-tumorous lesion(s) of a particular organ at a point in time or develop such lesions within a determined period of time are compared to the total number of individuals in the study population. Often expressed as a percentage but could be expressed as a ratio. A non-tumorous lesion is a localized pathological change in structure of an organ or tissue due to injury or disease, which is not neoplastic in origin; especially one that is circumscribed and well defined. Examples of non-tumorous lesions would include wounds, sores, ulcers, infarctions, etc.
Organ Non-tumorous Lesion Measurement [CMO:0000860] — Measurement of an organ lesion which is not neoplastic in origin. A lesion is a localized pathological change in structure of an organ or tissue due to injury or disease; especially one that is circumscribed and well defined. Examples of non-tumorous lesions would include wounds, sores, ulcers, infarctions, etc.
Organ Tumorous Lesion Incidence/prevalence Measurement [CMO:0000928] — A measurement in which the number of individuals in a study population that display one or more tumorous lesion(s) of a particular organ at a point in time or develop such lesions within a determined period of time are compared to the total number of individuals in the study population. Often expressed as a percentage but could be expressed as a ratio. A tumorous lesion is a localized pathological change in structure of an organ or tissue due to injury or disease; especially one that is circumscribed and well defined, but which is or has the potential to become a tumor, that is, a neoplasm or new growth of tissue in which cell multiplication is more or less uncontrolled and progressive. Tumorous lesions include tumors, preneoplastic lesions, and hyperplastic lesions composed of histologically normal cells.
Organ Tumorous Lesion Measurement [CMO:0000859] — This is a measurement of an organ lesion which is a tumor, that is, a neoplasm or new growth of tissue in which cell multiplication is more or less uncontrolled and progressive.
Osteoblast Cell Count [CMO:0000322] — The number of osteoblasts, cells which arise from a fibroblast and are associated with the production of bone, in a specified sample size.
Osteoclast Cell Count [CMO:0000323] — The number of osteoclasts, multinuclear cells associated with the absorption and removal of bone, in a specified sample size.
Osteoclast Surface Area to Total Bone Area Ratio [CMO:0003225] —
Ouabain- and Bumetanide-resistant Red Blood Cell K+ Import Rate [CMO:0003861] — Measurement of the amount of potassium ion that is imported despite ouabain and bumetanide inhibition of the Na+/K+ ATPase and Na-K-Cl symporter that transport sodium (Na), potassium (K), and chloride (Cl) ions across the cell membrane, in a specified volume of red blood cells during a specified unit of time.
Ouabain- and Bumetanide-resistant Red Blood Cell Na+ Import Rate [CMO:0003860] — Measurement of the amount of sodium ion that is imported despite ouabain and bumetanide inhibition of the Na+/K+ ATPase and Na-K-Cl symporter that transport sodium (Na), potassium (K), and chloride (Cl) ions across the cell membrane, in a specified volume of red blood cells during a specified unit of time.
Ouabain-sensitive Red Blood Cell K+ Import Rate [CMO:0003857] — Measurement of the amount of potassium ion that is blocked from being imported by ouabain inhibition of the erythrocyte sodium-potassium adenosine triphosphatase, an enzyme which catalyzes the active, ATP-dependent transport of sodium and potassium ions across cell membranes, in a specified volume of red blood cells during a specified unit of time. Rubidium is sometimes assayed as a substitute for potassium.
Ouabain-sensitive Red Blood Cell Na+ Export Rate [CMO:0003856] — Measurement of the amount of sodium ion that is blocked from being exported by ouabain inhibition of the erythrocyte sodium-potassium adenosine triphosphatase, an enzyme which catalyzes the active, ATP-dependent transport of sodium and potassium ions across cell membranes, in a specified volume of red blood cells during a specified unit of time.
Outer Ear Ribonucleic Acid Level [CMO:0003976] — This is any measurement of the absolute or relative amount(s) of one or more of the ribonucleic acids (RNAs) found in the outer ear, part of the ear external to the tympanum (eardrum), consisting of a tube (the external auditory meatus) and the pinna (auricle).
Ovary Dry Weight [CMO:0002489] — The weight after removal from the body and subsequent dessication, of one or both of the female sexual glands in which the oocytes are formed.
