| Name: | CoPA |
|---|---|
| Synonyms: | primary commissural interneuron |
| Definition: | An interneuron in the spinal cord. CoPA are bipolar with "T" shaped dorsal dendrites, have contralateral longitudinal axons that crosses the cord dorsal to the Mauthner neuron and ascends in the dorsal cord. These neurons are glutamatergic. |

| Name: | anterior/posterior axon guidance |
|---|---|
| Synonyms: | anterior-posterior axon guidance, anterior/posterior axon pathfinding |
| Definition: | The process in which the migration of an axon growth cone is directed to a specific target site along the anterior-posterior body axis in response to a combination of attractive and repulsive cues. The anterior-posterior axis is defined by a line that runs from the head or mouth of an organism to the tail or opposite end of the organism. |

| Synonyms: | quality of a process, quality of occurrent, quality of process, relational quality of occurrent |
| Definition: | A quality which inheres in an process. |
