Each instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvcbbL5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">InternalAnatomicalPart</a> is a part of the internal anatomy of an organism. Example subcollections include <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjzG5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">CirculatorySystem</a> and <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvbw1j5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">MiddleEar</a>. Pretty String (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwLSVCpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">prettyString</a> TERM STRING) means that STRING is the English word or expression (sequence of words) commonly used to refer to TERM. The predicate <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwLSVCpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">prettyString</a> is used by the code which generates CycL to English paraphrases, but its applicability is not restricted to this use. prettyString A default pairwise disjoint collection of collections (see <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvViA4pwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">SiblingDisjointCollectionType</a>) and a specialization of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjn2pwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">AnimalBodyPartType</a>. Instances are types of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVraoZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">AnimalBodyRegion</a> that occur uniquely in the organisms (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjE1pwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Organism_Whole</a>) that have them. For example, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVi6YJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Head_AnimalBodyPart</a> is an instance of this collection.

UniqueAnatomicalPartType type of unique anatomical part Sac-Organic sac <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvv3aGpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Sac_Organic</a> is a specialization of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwQBXZpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">OrganismPart</a> and <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjOGJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Container</a>. Each instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvv3aGpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Sac_Organic</a> is a plant or animal membranous sac or bladder, whether or not it is still part of a living <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjE1pwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Organism_Whole</a>. Instances of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvv3aGpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Sac_Organic</a> have zero (some plant bladders), one (e.g. <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVkGr5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">GallBladder</a>), two (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjlqpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Stomach</a>), or three (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjMmZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Bladder_Urinary</a>) tubes attached for the flow of material into or out of the bladder. The bladder may used for storage of some material in the body, and possible processing thereof, or merely as a mechanism for separating structures (e.g. the <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvjJ72ZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Peritoneum</a>). Any tubes connected to the bladder are of far smaller diameter than the bladder itself. Peritoneum The collection of all peritonea. An instance of this collection is a membranous sac in the <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvZR1TJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">AbdominalCavity</a> which wraps the abdominal <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwP3iWpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Organ</a>s. peritoneum SolidTangibleThing An instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVny6pwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">ExistingStuffType</a>, and a specialization of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVj27ZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">PartiallyTangible</a>. Each instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjElJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">SolidTangibleThing</a> is a piece of stuff possessing many of the properties that matter in a solid state (see the constant <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjZVpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Solid_StateOfMatter</a>) exhibits (although not all instances of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjElJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">SolidTangibleThing</a> are formally in a solid state). Instances have a shape independent from their container, and, when deformed with sufficient force (which may be small for weak, brittle materials or high for materials that deform easily), they break. Examples of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjElJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">SolidTangibleThing</a>s include: pieces of substances in a solid state of matter, such as ice cubes; solid mixtures like a quarter-dollar coin or a paper bag; and complex mixtures of biological origin that behave like solids, e.g., bone. Note that some pieces of matter that are formally in a solid state (for example, pieces of clay) are not instances of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjElJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">SolidTangibleThing</a>, since they do not readily break when deformed; for this reason, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjZVpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Solid_StateOfMatter</a> is <i>not</i> a specialization of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjElJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">SolidTangibleThing</a>.

Note that severed limbs and removed organs are _not_ instances of this collection, since they are not _parts_ of some living animal.
