CROSS-SPECIES ANATOMY - ANNOTATIONS

The Basic subset of the UBERON integrated, cross-species anatomy ontology is downloaded weekly from http://berkeleybop.org/ontologies/uberon/basic.obo. For more information about this ontology see the "About" page on the UBERON website at http://uberon.github.io/about.html.

Accession:UBERON:0036154 term browser browse the term
Definition:A placenta in which part of the chorion remains smooth, while the other part interacts with the endometrium to form the placenta. The maternal blood cells are in direct contact with the fetal chorion.
Comment:[structure-note] "A single placenta is formed and is discoid in shape"; [taxon-note] "seen in numerous groups -- humans, mice, insectivores, rabbits, rats, and monkeys"
Synonyms:external_ontology: present_in_taxon NCBITaxon:314146;   present_in_taxon NCBITaxon:9362
