Porta
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
A Porta opens for Master Chief.
The Porta[1] is a sphincter-like orifice embedded in the floors and walls of Flood hives that act as the Flood analog to doorways. Portas were sighted in the Flood-infested High Charity[2].
Trivia

- Portas make a unique sound when they open or close.
