P preceded_by P' if and only if: given any process p that instantiates P at a time t, there is some process p' such that p' instantiates P' at time t', and t' is earlier than t.
relationship
OBO_REL:preceded_by
An example is: translation preceded_by transcription; aging preceded_by development (not however death preceded_by aging). Where derives_from links classes of continuants, preceded_by links classes of processes. Clearly, however, these two relations are not independent of each other. Thus if cells of type C1 derive_from cells of type C, then any cell division involving an instance of C1 in a given lineage is preceded_by cellular processes involving an instance of C. The assertion P preceded_by P1 tells us something about Ps in general: that is, it tells us something about what happened earlier, given what we know about what happened later. Thus it does not provide information pointing in the opposite direction, concerning instances of P1 in general; that is, that each is such as to be succeeded by some instance of P. Note that an assertion to the effect that P preceded_by P1 is rather weak; it tells us little about the relations between the underlying instances in virtue of which the preceded_by relation obtains. Typically we will be interested in stronger relations, for example in the relation immediately_preceded_by, or in relations which combine preceded_by with a condition to the effect that the corresponding instances of P and P1 share participants, or that their participants are connected by relations of derivation, or (as a first step along the road to a treatment of causality) that the one process in some way affects (for example, initiates or regulates) the other.

The minimum setting for an eye involves a photo-receptor in the vicinity of shading pigment, which allows the detection of the direction of light. A simple eye consists of one photoreceptor and one pigment cell. Such prototype two- celled eyes are found, for example, in trochophora larvae and in planarians. Our definition also includes single photosensitive cells containing both photo- and shading pigment (eg. unicellular algae, turbellarian 'epidermal eyes'), but excludes photoreceptor cells not combined with shading pigment (eg. deep brain photoreceptor cells).

nervous system
In physiological terms, a CNS integrates and processes sensory information coming from the periphery, and initiates body-wide responses via neurosecretion into the body fluid or direct stimulation of the body musculature. Anatomically, a CNS is a delimited nervous tissue that comprises distinct agglomerations of functionally specialized neurons (nuclei) interconnected by axon tracts (neuropil). The CNS may be subdivided into separate parts (ganglia). It connects to the periphery via nerves. A CNS thus defined is found in various shapes and degrees of complexity in different animal phyla, including vertebrates and many invertebrates, such as echinoderms, arthropods, nematodes, molluscs and annelids.
