Name: posterior communicating artery
Synonyms: caudal communicating segment, PCA, PCS, posterior communicating segment of the basilar artery
Definition: An artery that connects caudal division of the internal carotid artery and the basal communicating artery to the basilar artery.
Ontology: Anatomy Ontology [ZFA:0005001]
Name: has fewer parts of type
Synonyms: decreased number of, has decreased number of, has fewer physical parts of type
Definition: The bearer of this quality has_part < n AND has_part > 0 of the indicated entity type, where n is the normal amount for a comparable organism. Note that the bearer of the quality is the whole, not the part. Formally: If a bearer entity e has fewer parts of type X at time t, then the number of instances x of X at t such that x part_of e is < n, where n is either the normal number for comparable entities, or n is stated explicitly.
