A '''Body''' encompasses all the members of a seperate entity. Generally an entity of [[mass]] or [[people]]. A body of [[water]] is seperate from the other [[lakes]] and [[rivers]]. A student body is a group of people; but most often a body refers to a group of organs. The [[Human Body]] is a primary example, but [[animals]] and [[plants]] also have "bodies".
