  • faces (animal components) - The front part of the head of an animal; in vertebrates, the area of the head on which the sense organs of vision and smell as well as the mouth and jaws are located. In humans, the face extends from the forehead to the chin; the term may also be used to describe the part of the front of the head below the forehead, from the eyebrows to the chin.
  • figures (representations) - Representations of humans or animals.
  • hell - Place or state of extreme or eternal suffering, usually inflicted as punishment upon the wicked or the nonbelieving.
  • water - A liquid made up of molecules of hydrogen and oxygen (HO2). When pure, it is colorless, tasteless, and odorless. It exists in gaseous, liquid, and solid forms; it is liquid at room temperature. It is the liquid of which seas, lakes, and rivers are composed, and which falls as rain. Water is one of the most plentiful and essential of compounds. It is vital to life, participating in virtually every process that occurs in plants and animals. One of its most important properties is its ability to dissolve many other substances. The versatility of water as a solvent is essential to living organisms. The term "water" is typically used to refer to the liquid form of this compound; for the solid or gaseous forms, use "ice" or "water vapor."
