GO term: response to heat Help



Ontology: Biological Process (GO:0009408)

Definition: Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a heat stimulus, a temperature stimulus above the optimal temperature for that organism.

Synonyms: response to heat shock
