# From a GO Database (requires go-db-perl)

my $term = $apph->get_term({acc=>00003677});

Represents an Ontology term; the same class is used for process, compartment and function
currently, a Term is not aware of its Relationships; to find out how a term is related to other terms, use the a GO::Model::Graph object, which will give you the GO::Model::Relationship objects; for example

$rels = $graph->get_parent_relationships($term->acc);
