there are a set of very specific mapping GO concepts. The frames include Removing, Cause change, Cause change of position on a scale, Progress, Creating and Becoming aware**. For example, the GO concepts mapping to the frame** Removing, are located in the different branches of the GO, such as GO:0006915:apoptosis, GO:0043412:macromolecule modification and GO:0006259:DNA metabolic process.

No general concept subsumes the specific events or situations.

GO concepts mapping to multiple FN frames. **In this case, the first situation can be explained by using the example** GO:0032502 developmental process.

Based on the definition, this concept can be the mapping to the frame Progress.

However, many of its subclasses describe a biological progress not **semantically**
relevant to Progress**. For example, the subclass** GO:0010014:meristem initiation, can be considered as the mapping to the frame Process start**. On the other hand,**
the head of the concept names of some subclasses are not LUs of neither the frame Progress **nor any frames in FrameNet, but the concept describes the situation** semantically relevant to Progress**, e.g. the concept** GO:0043934:sporulation**. The**
second situation refers to the concept GO:0019882:antigen processing and presentation. The verb present **is in the LUs of the frame** Cause to perceive, and **process**
is the word referring to the frame Process**. This kind of concepts cover a series**
of events and can not be simply mapped to one frame.

The result shows the gap between the classification of events or situation in GO and FrameNet. From the point of view of biology, GO may describe a situation that happens to different substances by different specific concepts, but it is defined as a semantic frame in the point of view of linguistics. A general GO biological process concept may cover different events that are **described** by different semantic frames, although they all are considered as a **kind of the** general biological process from the point of view of biology. For some events, although they appear in the context in molecular biology domain, the semantics are general. Secondly, the result illustrates the gap between the grouping of words in the domain and in general English. The granularity of groupings can be different from the point of view of linguistics and biology. It is also difficult to create semantic frames for some domain-specific words.
