 P - Process

 

Process: A succession or sequence of events changing - developing - in time in some specific way.

Note that as stated processes may involve many things, alive or dead, or just one thing, such as a grub developing into an insect, and the specific way may be given by a set of known or unknown deterministic laws, or may depend on random or chance factors.
