passage
a path or channel or duct through or along which something may pass
Research draft, second pass
A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

Purpose and description
Let an agent explain body passages, relay examples from anatomy, embryology and botany sources, route airway obstruction to emergency services, describe the named hyponyms, and distinguish body passages from vessels as tubular organs, cavities, lumens as interior spaces and non-anatomical passages.
In the WordNet sense, a path, channel or duct in the body through or along which something may pass, with hyponyms the registry aliases name such as the birth canal, the aortic orifice where blood leaves the left ventricle into the aorta, pores in the skin, stomata as openings in plant leaves or surgically created openings, the blastopore, the first opening formed in the embryo during gastrulation, and vents such as the cloacal opening of birds, reptiles and fish; the concept spans anatomy, embryology and botany. Blockages of body passages such as the airway can be emergencies.
What it is for: Naming anatomical channels and openings.
It can be explain the concept; relay examples across fields; describe named hyponyms; route airway emergencies.
Distinguishing features
Allows passage
Anatomical or botanical
Openings and ducts
Varied scales
What it looks like
Channels, openings and pores in organisms, seen in anatomy and microscopy.
Physical character
WordNet hypernym: body part, structure note
blastopore fate: mouth in protostomes, anus in deuterostomes note - textbook simplification
leaf stomata density: often hundreds per square millimetre note - varies by species
How it is recognised
Anatomical path or opening
Vent, blastopore, birth canal, pore, aortic orifice, stoma
Vessels are tubular organs; cavities are enclosed spaces; lumens are interiors of tubes; architectural passages are corridors
